Traffic shift today on I-24/Tennessee River bridge

A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans an eastbound traffic shift today in the Interstate 24 Tennessee River Bridge work zone.

Eastbound travelers on I-24 should be alert for rolling roadblocks on Monday and Tuesday to create gaps in traffic that will allow changes to the traffic configuration.  

The contractor plans to have two 11-ft lanes open for eastbound traffic by sometime Wednesday morning.  

Some delays are possible during the transition.

To avoid this section of I-24, take US 62 and KY 453 between Calvert City Exit 27 and Grand Rivers Exit 31 to help reduce the likelihood of delays - particularly during peak travel periods.
