LEXINGTON, Ky. — Motorists driving on Interstate 64 in Fayette County should expect nighttime mobile right-lane closures beginning Wednesday, Oct. 14, according to a traffic advisory from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). The work is scheduled for maintenance between mile points 71 and 75.

Work will run from 6 p.m. to midnight, weather permitting. Crews will first travel westbound on I-64 from the Northern Split, then move to the eastbound lanes and return toward the Northern Split, the agency said. The Northern Split is the area where I-64 and I-75 meet north of downtown Lexington.

KYTC urged drivers to slow down, use extra caution through the work zone and watch for crews and equipment. Drivers traveling through the area during evening hours should plan for possible delays and allow extra time for their trips.

The cabinet said all work and closures are tentative and subject to change because of weather, emergencies and other factors outside the control of the agency. Drivers should check for updates before heading out.

Current traffic information and road conditions are available through GoKy.ky.gov, the state's official traveler information website.

The closures fall within KYTC's District 7, which covers Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford counties.
