LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has announced that a $1.4 million bridge deck restoration project is expected to begin Thursday, June 18 on Interstate 75 in Fayette County, weather permitting.
The project will involve restoration and waterproofing of the I-75 bridge over David Fork of Elkhorn Creek near mile point 110.5. KYTC officials say the work is intended to preserve the bridge deck and extend the service life of the structure, with completion expected by September 1, 2026.
The work will be completed in phases, with initial construction including left or fast lane closures at mile point 110.5 on both I-75 southbound and northbound. The KYTC said additional traffic shifts and lane closures will be announced in advance as work progresses. Motorists are advised to expect delays, reduce speed, and use caution while traveling through the work zone and to watch for signage and personnel.
The announcement comes as the Lexington area continues to manage multiple construction projects. Earlier this year, the KYTC completed bridge deck inspection and cleaning work at the Clays Ferry Bridge, a major interstate crossing located at mile point 99 on the Madison-Fayette County line.
All work and closures are scheduled on a tentative basis and are subject to change depending on weather, emergencies, and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways. Motorists are encouraged to monitor real-time traffic updates through GoKY.ky.gov or via navigation apps such as Waze.
