The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) reports that construction for the I-75 widening project from the Southern Split to Paris Pike (U.S. 68) in Lexington will require an overnight double lane closure on I-64/I-75 northbound tonight, Tuesday, November 10. The temporary closure will allow contractors to complete paving of the left and middle lanes.
Beginning tonight at 7:00 p.m., contractors will close the left and middle lanes of I-64/I-75 northbound from the Southern Split (mile point 111) to the Paris Pike exit (mile point 113). All lanes will reopen by 6:00 a.m. Wednesday, November 11. The right lane will remain open. Motorists should expect and plan for delays.

The work is part of the I-75 widening project. When complete in 2026, this project will reduce congestion and improve safety throughout the 2-mile corridor from the Paris Pike exit to the I-75/I-64 Southern Split. It is the second of two projects to widen I-75/I-64 to four lanes each direction in Fayette County.
All work/closures are scheduled on a tentative basis, and subject to change depending on weather conditions, emergencies and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways.
