Section of KY 1450 (Blue Lick Road) to Close
for Eight Days in Jefferson County
The closure is part of an ongoing widening project
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (March 28, 2022) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of the closure of a section of KY 1450 (Blue Lick Road) for eight days in the Okolona neighborhood of Jefferson County.
KY 1450 will be closed from 7 a.m. April 2 to 7 p.m. April 10 from Preston Highway (KY 61) to South Park Road. The closure is to safely relocate utilities that must be moved to widen the road. Contractors will also take advantage of the closure to work ahead of schedule and construct a temporary road surface in one part of the construction zone. Traffic will be shifted onto this temporary surface when KY 1450 reopens as the widening project progresses.
Motorists will have access to homes and businesses, but KY 1450 will be blocked at Fishpool Creek, located between Foreman and Altair lanes. Electronic message boards alerting motorists of the scheduled closure will be installed this week. Motorists should follow this posted detour starting on April 2: KY 61 to South Park Road and vice versa.
The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.
