Based on the search results, I can see that there was a scheduled closure of the Paris Pike southbound on-ramp to I-75 South (Exit 113) that was supposed to last from Friday, April 24 at 8 p.m. through Wednesday, April 29 at 6 a.m. for ramp widening as part of the I-75 widening project. Since today is April 29, this appears to be the closure the viewer is asking about. The search results show it was scheduled to end today, but I don't see specific confirmation that it finished early. Let me craft the script based on this information and the general context about road projects in Lexington.

I got a question from someone asking about that Interstate seventy-five ramp closure in Fayette County that apparently finished early. They want to know which ramp it was and how often road projects actually wrap up ahead of schedule around here.

That was the southbound on-ramp from Paris Pike, exit one thirteen, to Interstate seventy-five South. It was supposed to be closed for ramp widening from Friday night through this morning at six a.m. as part of that big Interstate seventy-five widening project between Paris Pike and Newtown Pike.

So did it actually finish early, or are we just at the scheduled end time?

Well, the timing looks right on schedule actually. But finishing early? That's honestly not something we see a whole lot of around here. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet usually builds pretty realistic timelines into these projects, especially when they involve major interchanges like Paris Pike.

What about weather delays going the other direction? We've had some wet weather lately.

The state always puts that caveat in their announcements that schedules can change due to weather, emergencies, or unforeseen circumstances. This whole widening project from Paris Pike to the Southern Split is supposed to wrap up sometime this year, and they've been pretty methodical about it. The overnight closures, the sign work, the ramp improvements. It's all part of adding those extra lanes to handle the traffic crush we get through that corridor.

Makes sense. That stretch can be brutal during rush hour.

Absolutely. And with the rain we're getting today, people are probably grateful to have that ramp back open on schedule.
