Beginning Sunday night, September 27, 2020, weather permitting, there will be road construction work on the structure carrying I-24 over the Ohio River that will require lane closures beginning at 7pm. Lane closures will be utilized Sunday night thru Thursday morning. The contractor will work nightly from 7:00pm to 7:00am. Work is expected to be completed on October 30, 2020. Work includes hot mix asphalt patches, partial depth patches and pavement markings.
