Kentucky Route 956 (KY 956) is a state secondary highway in Madison County, Kentucky, located north of Berea. At just under 1 + 1⁄2 miles (2.4 km) in length, KY 956 serves as a connector between Interstate 75 and U.S. Route 25.

Kentucky Route 956 begins at an intersection with Kentucky Route 595 and Mayde Road, just east of exit 77 of Interstate 75. KY 956 travels east one half-mile (0.80 km) before crossing a CSX Transportation line. Two-tenths of a mile later, the road intersects Menelaus Road, which carries Kentucky Route 1983, a rural secondary highway. From Menelaus Road, KY 956 travels another 3⁄4 miles (1.2 km) to reach its eastern end at U.S. Route 25.

The road opened to the public in January 2009.[citation needed] Plans are to build a two lane stretch from U.S. 25 to Kentucky Route 1016 sometime in 2009.[citation needed]

The entire route is in Berea, Madison County.
