Hey Kentucky, today is National Secure Your Load Day!

Here’s some tips to protect yourself and others on the road:

- Use rope or appropriate straps to secure items.
- Put lighter items on the bottom, and heavier items on the top.
- Don’t overload! Take multiple trips if you need to.
- Double-check your load, as items can shift beneath ropes and loosen on the road.

Let’s all drive safely! 🚚

Warmer weather and sunny days also signal more roadwork being done across the Commonwealth!

If you see crews out, please go slow and give them space to do their work.

Remember, respect the work zone so that we all get home safely.

Major progress takes a major team effort.

With drivers planning ahead and crews now working around the clock, I-65 construction in Louisville is off to a strong start. Significant bridge replacement work is already underway, and every day of the closure will bring us one step closer to a safer, improved corridor!

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

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.
