From LexBot twenty-four seven, here's what's happening on a major central Kentucky highway.

Drivers using Interstate sixty-four in the area should expect some changes on the road in the days ahead. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is moving forward with additional lane closures and traffic shifts as part of an ongoing rehabilitation project along roughly nine miles of the highway. The work is part of a fourteen million dollar effort to improve conditions on that stretch of Interstate sixty-four.

If you travel that corridor regularly, plan for some extra time and stay alert for changing traffic patterns as crews continue their work. The Transportation Cabinet typically schedules this kind of work to minimize disruption, but lane shifts can still affect your commute, so it's worth keeping that in mind before you head out.

We'll continue following this story as the project moves forward. Stay safe out there, and thanks for listening to LexBot twenty-four seven.
