As work continues to advance on the $130 million widening and improvement project of Interstate 264 (Watterson Expressway) and U.S. 42 (Brownsboro Road) in Louisville, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of upcoming weekend ramp closures for bridge demolition work.

To safely carry out the demolition of the I-71 South ramp bridge over the Watterson Expressway interchange ramps, the following traffic restrictions will be in place beginning Friday, March 13, at 8 p.m., continuing through Monday, March 16, at 5 a.m.:

🚧The I-264 East ramp to I-71 South will be closed (Exit 23B) – motorists should take I-71 North to I-265 North to reach I-71 South.
🚧The I-71 South ramp to I-264 West will be closed (Exit 5) – motorists should continue on I-71 South to Zorn Avenue at Exit 2 to I-71 North to reach I-264 West.
🚧I-71 North will be closed at mile point 4.9 – motorists will be able to continue to I-264 West at Exit 5 and should detour to either U.S. 42 (Brownsboro Road) at Exit 22 or KY 1447 (Westport Road) at Exit 21 to connect with I-264 East to proceed on to I-71 North.

The I-71 North ramp to I-264 West will remain open at Exit 5. The I-264 East ramp to I-71 North will also remain open (Exit 23A).

*Edited to add:*
This weekend, contract crews will demolish one half of the top ramp bridge carrying I-264 East to I-71 South (shown on the attached graphic) to accommodate the widening of I-264 as part of the I-264/U.S. 42 Widening and Improvement Project: https://transportation.ky.gov/DistrictFive/Pages/I-264-and-U.S.-42-Improvement-Project-(Construction-Phase).aspx

The bridge is currently reduced to a single lane, and after this weekend’s closure, it will continue operating in that same configuration.

Once the ramp closures are complete, crews will begin constructing one half of the replacement bridge. After that portion is finished, traffic will be shifted onto the new structure so crews can demolish and rebuild the remaining half.
