A portion of I-24 Dotsonville Road will affect your commute

I-24- Expect some significant delays for the next few months.  Between now and sometime in the fall, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet will restrict the westbound side to one lane.  Crews are working on inside shoulder reconstruction.

The lane restriction will be from the 92 to the 86 mile-marker and motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes while the work being done.

Alternate routes include exit 4 in Tennessee will get you on US 79 to Guthrie, where you can take US 41 to Trenton, Pembroke and Hopkinsville. Exit 1 will get you to Trenton Road where you can head north to Trenton.  You can also make a turn onto US 41 from there.

The work should be done and completed this fall.
