CARROLL & GALLATIN COUNTIES:
-
Interstate 71 – 52.77 – 57.36 mile points – A widening project aimed at reducing congestion and improving safety on I-71 in Carroll and Gallatin counties is in progress. The project will widen I-71 from its configuration of two lanes in each direction, to three lanes.
On Sunday, March 23, from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m., crews will perform saw cutting on the I-71 bridge overpass that carries traffic over KY 47. While impacts will be minimal, a flagger will be on-site to guide and stop traffic on KY 47 as needed.
Over the next two weeks, contractors will begin placing barrier walls on I-71 within the project limits, starting on the northbound side before switching to the southbound side. To accommodate this work, a single lane closure will be in place on I-71 southbound for truck access to the median.
Nightly lane closures could occur during the following hours:
-Sunday night - Thursday morning: 7 p.m. - 8 a.m.
