I-75 lane closures planned May 2-3

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to restrict northbound and southbound traffic to one lane on I-75 at the Laurel/Whitley line (mile point 27.9; Lynn Camp bridge) on Tuesday, May 2 and Wednesday, May 3.

On Tuesday, May 2, northbound traffic at mile point 27.9 will be reduced to one lane at 9 a.m. and conclude at 3 p.m. On Wednesday, May 3, southbound traffic at mile point 27.9 will be reduced to one lane at 9 a.m. and conclude at 3 p.m.

The lane restriction will allow crews to perform a detailed inspection of the bridge structure. Engineers will be using a Snooper Truck to access the deck substructure on the bridge.

Motorists are advised to use caution during this period and be aware of signage, road crews and other drivers. The work is dependent on weather conditions.

The date, time, and duration of work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.
