I-Move Traffic Alert: Lane Closure on Gene Snyder Tonight; Ramp Closures at the I-265/I-71 Interchange Saturday

Update: This post has been updated to reflect that the I-265 North lane closure will start tonight.

Work in the I-Move Kentucky project area will require a lane closure on Interstate 265 (Gene Snyder Freeway) starting Friday, Oct. 28. Ramp closures at the I-71/I-265 interchange are planned for Saturday, Oct. 29.

Beginning at 8 p.m. tonight, I-265 North will be reduced to one lane between I-64 (Exit 25) and Shelbyville Road (Exit 27) to allow the contractor to pave the right lane. Access to Shelbyville Road and the I-64 West to I-265 North ramp will remain open during this time. The closure will last until 8 p.m. Saturday.

From 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday, the collector-distributor (C-D) lane on I-71 South will be closed for final striping. The ramps from I-71 South to I-265 South and I-265 North to I-71 South will also be closed.
