I-265 (Gene Snyder Freeway)

From 8 p.m. Friday, April 25, to 6 a.m. Monday, April 28:

  • I-265 South near mile marker 25 (at the bridge over I-64) will be reduced to one lane.
  • I-64 West near mile point 19.4 (at the I-64/I-265 interchange) will be reduced to two lanes.
  • The ramp from I-64 West to I-265 South will be closed.
