LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Heads up drivers, more lane restrictions and directional closures are scheduled for the Sherman Minton Bridge in July and August.
Sherman Minton Renewal spokesperson Andrea Brady said a minimum of one eastbound and one westbound lane on Interstate 64 will be open starting July 12 at 6 p.m. until July 13 at 1 p.m.
Starting July 19 at 6 p.m. until July 20 at 1 p.m., there will be at minimum one eastbound lane open.
Additionally, the westbound lanes, which go from Kentucky to Indiana, will be closed on July 19 around 10 p.m. until July 22 at 6 a.m. Brady said. If it is delayed for any reason, it will be tentatively scheduled for the next weekend.
More westbound lane restrictions are also scheduled starting July 26 at 6 p.m. until July 27 at 1 p.m.; Brady said there will at least be one lane open. The Watterson Expressway westbound ramp to I-64 will be closed too.
However, a 9-day closure is scheduled for next month; all westbound lanes will be closed Aug. 2 around 10 p.m. and reopened on Aug. 11 around 10 p.m. according to Brady. During that closure, the exit ramp to Elm Street and the I-264 westbound to I-64 westbound ramps will be closed.
These restrictions and closures were designed to allow crews to continue cable hanger work, add permanent striping among other things.
