Contract crews will begin repairs along concrete sections of Northbound Interstate 65 in Hardin County on Sunday night, requiring closure of two lanes.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet issued an advisory stating that only one lane will be available for northbound travel from mile point 101 (just south of KY 313/Joe Prather Highway) to mile point 103 (Rolling Fork River Bridge).
Work will take place from Sunday night through Thursday morning. Lengthy delays are possible during this time, especially mid and late day. Motorists should watch for stopped and slow moving traffic ahead. Those who seek an alternate route may wish to use the following:
- Exit 93 (Bluegrass Parkway), to exit 10 (KY 52 – Boston), to US 62, to KY 61 and rejoin I-65 in Lebanon Junction at the 105 interchange.
Work will not take place and all lanes will be open from Thursday afternoon through Sunday afternoon to better accommodate higher traffic volumes.
Northbound work will take approximately two weeks to complete, depending on weather conditions. Once northbound work is complete, contract crews will switch repair operations to southbound lanes.
