Traffic Advisory: Northbound I-65 Mile Points 58-64

Update: 10:15pmCT - Site is clear and traffic flow is returning to normal. - Chris Jessie

By Chris Jessie

A commercial vehicle with an oversized load cannot cross the northbound bridge over CSX Railroad near Exit 65 due to width clearance. The CMV is in the LEFT lane.

With ongoing construction, northbound lanes are divided in this area by barrier wall. Crews are working to get the vehicles behind the CMV out of the section enclosed by barrier wall. After other vehicles are cleared, the CMV will have to travel in reverse back to Exit 58. This will keep the LEFT lane closed for the next 4+ hours.


The Rest Area and Exit 65 (Northbound/Munfordville) are not affected and will remain open.

Motorists must choose the RIGHT lane just north of Exit 58 at the construction "split". Long delays will be possible as traffic funnels to one lane near Exit 58.

Additional congestion is likely as LEFT lane vehicles are cleared from the queue.


KYTC Note:
Several Northbound I65 message boards are placed in advance of the construction zone. These bright visual alerts direct loads over 11' to "exit now" at Exits 53 and 58. This additional measure of precaution is in addition to the permit that oversized load carriers are required to obtain when organizing a travel plan.
