The I-65 corridor project has reached a significant milestone as crews have completed the demolition of the bridge. Despite facing challenges such as heavy rain and high winds, project managers are confident that they will meet the August 1 deadline. By then, two lanes in each direction are expected to reopen, with two southbound lanes from University Boulevard to the Watterson set to reopen by the end of June.
Project Update
According to spokesperson Mindy Peterson, the construction crews have been working around the clock since all lanes of I-65 closed on June 1. Although there have been brief stoppages due to weather conditions, these have not impacted the overall schedule. The crews are now focused on rebuilding the bridge, and their efforts are expected to pay off with the reopening of the lanes as planned.
