Driving through Louisville this summer? Let your navigation app handle the routing. 📱

During the planned I‑65 closure between the Watterson Expressway (I‑264) and downtown Louisville (Jefferson Street), Waze will adjust routes in real time using closure information shared by KYTC.

This closure minimizes long-term delays for the drivers who rely on this route every day.

Through traffic will be directed around the closure, while downtown access is maintained. For official detour maps and project details, visit I65CentralCorridor.com

One week to go!🚧

I‑65 will close in Louisville between I‑264 and downtown (Jefferson Street) starting June 1.

This short-term closure is designed to replace 3 bridges to ensure safe, long-term connections. This method saves more than a year of additional restrictions and delays on the interstate.

Now is the time to finalize your plans, review detour routes, and prepare for the closure. Visit I65CentralCorridor.com for details and updates.
