Beginning November 4, 2024, Arnoldtown Road Will be closed at the 7929 area to repair the slope below the roadway. The project will install a new soldier pile and lagging wall where the soldier piles will be drilled shafts with I-beams coming extending out of concrete and we intend to utilize a precast concrete lagging for the wall.
Public Works anticipate the project will be complete at the end of March 2025. However, work site conditions or inclement weather may impact our construction schedule. Below is our proposed detour route. Please plan accordingly as this project will delay your commute.

 In conjunction with the ongoing Land Development Code (LDC) Reform process, the Office of Planning was tasked by Metro Council to study the existing development patterns in Louisville Metro and identify areas where new housing opportunities can be unlocked.
Working with the planning and urban design firm Opticos Design, the Office of Planning has developed the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study. The study analyzed existing conditions like land use, zoning, lot sizes, and infrastructure to identify areas that can support more housing, shown on the Analysis Map. After the Analysis Map was presented for public review in February 2024, the planning team worked to refine the map and develop a series of implementation strategies to help realize the identified potential for new housing. Drafts of the final materials for the study are now available for review and comment on the Office of Planning website, including a Story Map, the Analysis Map, and the draft Implementation Strategies Report.
The Office of Planning intends to adopt the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study and the Analysis Map as an amendment to Plan 2040, the comprehensive plan, after integrating public comment and feedback on the draft materials. The comment period will be open until at least November 1, 2024, with the option to extend if necessary.
You can access all of the Housing & Mixed Use Development Study draft materials, including the comment form, on the Office of Planning website: https://louisvilleky.gov/government/office-planning/housing-mixed-use-development-study.
