LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Rain from the remnants of Hurricane Helene continues to drench Louisville making for some hazardous road conditions across Jefferson County.

Several crashes on I-264 caused delays Friday afternoon.

A jack-knifed semi truck was blocking the I-264 West ramp to Shelbyville Road. All lanes were blocked as crews worked to remove an Amazon delivery truck. 

Another jack-knifed semi caused more delays on I-264, but on the eastbound lanes near Taylorsville Road. A tractor trailer blocked the left shoulder and left lane. 

Both semis had been cleared just before 3:30 p.m.

In-between those crashes, officials were working to clear a three-vehicle crash on I-264 East just past Breckenridge Lane. The crash had the right ramp and right shoulder blocked. It was expected to be cleared within an hour.

At this time, it's unclear if there were any injuries in any of the crashes or if weather was a factor. 

Drivers should still use caution and watch out for any puddles of water on the roadway to avoid hydroplaning.
