Nighttime Lane Restriction Planned on I-24 Eastbound at 62 MM in Trigg County Starting April 6
Signal on KY 124/Cerulean Road Overpass to alternate traffic flow
PADUCAH, Ky. (Apr. 1, 2025) – A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) is planning a nighttime, work zone lane restriction on Interstate 24 eastbound near the 62-mile marker in Trigg County starting on Sunday, April 6.
Interstate 24 eastbound traffic will be restricted to one lane from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. nightly as a crew works to repair damage to steel beams on the KY 124/Cerulean Road Overpass.
The crew will be working in the right-hand lane. Motorists should be alert for signs and message boards directing all traffic to shift to the left-hand or passing lane in the work zone.
There will also be a lane restriction on KY 124/Cerulean Road in Trigg County at the 3.84-mile point on the overpass that crosses Interstate 24. A temporary traffic signal will be installed on Friday which will control alternating traffic flow on the overpass when work begins on Sunday night.
The project is expected to be completed around April 18, weather permitting.
In June 2024, bridge inspectors found evidence the steel beams that support the overpass had been struck by a passing truck and some non-structural pieces of concrete edging had fallen into and along I-24.
Please use caution where workers and equipment are along the roadway near traffic flow.
