Work to perform bridge joint replacements on I-65 at "Hospital Curve" was scheduled to begin Friday and continue through the weekend. There was also a planned closure of I-65 southbound, but it has now been postponed. 

Construction on Interstate 65 South in downtown Louisville next week will create significant road closures for five days, likely causing major backups across the area.

KYTC said a damaged expansion joint on the Indiana approach needed to be repaired in preparation for a long-planned project to replace all expansion joints on the bridge.
