LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A portion of the Watterson Expressway will be temporarily closed on Sunday in Louisville.

Interstate 264 will be closed in both directions from the I-264/I-64 interchange at mile point 18.7 to the I-264/I-71 interchange at mile point 22.7 from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The closure will allow LG&E crews to work on overhead electric transmission and distribution lines near Brownsboro Road in preparation for Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's upcoming road widening project.

Drivers are encouraged to take alternative routes:

  • Drivers heading from I-71 south to I-264 west should take I-265 south, and then I-64 west to reach I-264 west
  • Drivers heading from I-71 north to I-264 west should continue on I-71 north, and then take I-265 south to I-64 west to reach I-264 west
  • Drivers traveling on I-264 east to I-71 north or I-71 south should take I-64 east, and then take I-265 north to reconnect with I-71

Travelers are encouraged to plan ahead and expect delays.
