I-64 lane to be closed near rest areas Friday Monday

Closure of a westbound lane on Interstate 64 west of Midway, originally set for yesterday and today, Friday, has been rescheduled for Mondaytomorrow from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., the state Transportation Cabinet has announced in an updated news release.

The cabinet said the closure is needed for a sewer-line replacement for the Woodford County rest areas, located between milepoints 60.2 and 60.7, as part of a renovation project for both facilities, which is scheduled for completion in about five weeks. The rest areas are closed to regular motorists until then, but semi-tractor-trailer drivers may continue to use them; temporary accommodations are in place for semi drivers.

The right, or slow, lane will be closed between milepoints 60 and 58. "All work is subject to change depending on weather, emergencies and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways," the cabinet said in a press release.
