Route description
editKY 293 starts in south Eddyville at a junction with KY 93 and KY 1055. Shortly after its beginning KY 93 intersects Interstate 24 (I-24) at that freeway's exit 45 interchange. It enters Caldwell County after leaving Saratoga and intersects KY 139 and KY 91 in downtown Princeton. It then runs concurrently with U.S. Route 62 (US 62) in downtown and breaks off US 62 to traverse the exit 81 interchange with I-69.
KY 293 continues on to intersect KY 70 in northeastern Caldwell County just north of Needmore. KY 293 briefly enters the northwestern sliver of Hopkins County before entering Webster County and reaching the city of Providence.
In Providence, KY 293 runs concurrently with KY 109 for 0.046 miles (0.074 km) and then KY 120 for about 0.424 miles (0.682 km). KY 293 then overlaps a third state route, KY 670 for 1.163 miles (1.872 km). KY 293 reaches its northern terminus at the intersection with KY 270 near Lisman.[2]
