TRAFFIC ADVISORY: Weekend Lane Closures on I-65 North Beginning Friday, Oct. 18, in Jefferson County
Crews to repair concrete slabs
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Oct. 17, 2024) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of lane closures on Interstate 65 North beginning Friday, Oct. 18, in Jefferson County.
All four lanes of mainline I-65 North from mile point 126.8 (near the I-65 North on-ramp from I-265) and mile point 127.9 (near KY 1747/Fern Valley Road) will be closed from 8 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18, through 7 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 20. Lane shifts and reductions will begin just past the I-265/KY 841 interchange at mile point 125.6. During the weekend lane closures, traffic will be directed onto the two lanes of the collector-distributor from mile point 126.8 to mile point 127.9. Motorists will then merge back onto the mainline of I-65 North near Fern Valley Road.
In preparation for the lane closures, alternating lane closures on the collector-distributor lanes will begin at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18. Crews will be repairing concrete slabs at multiple locations on I-65 North, with the weekend lane closures being necessary to allow ample time for the concrete to cure. Motorists should expect traffic shifts, obey lane restrictions, and use caution when traveling through the work zone.
The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.
