Overnight lane closures planned on I-64/I-75 in Lexington

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - Drivers traveling north on I-64/I-75 in Lexington should prepare for delays Tuesday night as crews close two lanes for paving.

The left and middle lanes will close at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, between the Southern Split at mile point 111 and the Paris Pike exit at mile point 113. The right lane will remain open.

All lanes are expected to reopen by 6 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 11. Drivers are urged to slow down and use caution through the work zone.

The paving is part of the I-75 widening project, which is expected to be completed in 2026. The project is intended to reduce congestion and improve safety along the two-mile corridor between the Southern Split and Paris Pike. It is the second of two projects to widen I-64/I-75 to four lanes in each direction in Fayette County.

The closure is subject to change because of weather, emergencies or other factors. More information about the project is available at DrivingLexingtonProgress.org.
