LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Jan. 8, 2026) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of an overnight lane closure on I-64 East beginning Monday, Jan. 12, in Franklin County.
The left lane of I-64 East at mile point 53.15 (near U.S. 127) will be closed overnight from 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 12, through 6 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 13. The overnight lane closure is necessary for contract crews to perform bridge work.
The work is part of the I-64 improvement project between the Frankfort exits (mile markers 53 and 58), which includes milling removing the existing asphalt surface followed by resurfacing with new asphalt pavement.
