Work Zone Restrictions Planned along I-24 at 52mm and 56mm for Median Work Starting Monday

Work zones for removal of construction median crossovers

PADUCAH, Ky. (June 21, 2024)  The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) plans work zone lane restrictions along Interstate 24 at the 52 mile marker and the 56 mile marker starting Monday, June 24, 2024.

Motorists should be alert for work zone lane restrictions at the following locations for both eastbound and westbound traffic:

Monday Night -Tuesday, June 24-25
52 mile marker

Wednesday-Friday, June 26-28
56 mile marker

All traffic will move to the right-hand or driving lane to allow a crew to mill out the paved construction crossovers from a concrete pavement rehabilitation project.

Motorists should be alert for trucks moving into and out of the worksite at each of these locations.

Material milled from the sites will be used for construction of a new salt dome and equipment staging area just off KY 1523 at the I-24/I-69 Exit 24 Interchange at Calvert City.

Once asphalt and gravel have been milled at these locations, a crew is expected to be back at these locations in several weeks to return the median to normal contours.
