LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) has scheduled rolling roadblock operations on westbound Interstate 64 in Fayette and Scott counties on Thursday, Oct. 22, according to a KYTC District 7 traffic advisory. The operations will allow crews to safely perform routine maintenan ce work. The roadblocks are scheduled from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., weather permitting. They will occur on westbound I-64 between mile points 74 and 69, beginning just west of the northern split and continuing west into Scott County. Rolling roadblocks are short, moving stoppages that temporarily slow or halt traffic while crews work, then allow vehicles to resume normal speed before the next segment. The advisory states that the operations will affect travel lanes and ramps throughout the work zone. KYTC said message boards will be placed in advance to notify motorists of the upcoming operations. Drivers who regularly travel this stretch of interstate, particularly during the evening commute, should plan for possible delays and allow extra travel time. The cabinet urged motorists to reduce speed and watch for workers and equipment in the work zone. Drivers are also encouraged to stay alert for changing traffic patterns near the northern split and along the ramps in the affected area. The schedule is tentative. KYTC said all work and closures are subject to change based on weather, emergencies and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways. Motorists should check for updates before departing. Live traffic information for Kentucky roads is available through GoKY.ky.gov. The KYTC District 7 office oversees transportation in 12 counties: Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford.
