KYTC crews to patch potholes

LOUISVILLE – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of pothole patching on Interstate 65 North and South tonight, Feb. 3, in Bullitt County.

Traffic will be temporarily slowed and sometimes stopped to allow crews space to patch potholes from 7 p.m. to midnight.

Motorists should heed rolling roadblock restrictions, maintain safe following distances and proceed with caution through the work zone.



The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur. Visit goky.ky.gov for the latest in traffic and travel information in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. You can also get traffic information for the District 5 counties on Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter).

NTI DAY WEDNESDAY FOR BCPS

With dangerously cold temperatures and wind chills expected early tomorrow morning, Wednesday, January 22, will be NTI Day #2 for all students. These conditions make early bus routes unsafe for drivers and students, and large facilities like our schools often face challenges keeping spaces warm during extreme cold.

This decision was made with the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and families in mind. Teachers will share assignments, and resources are available on the district website to support learning from home.

We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we navigate these frigid temperatures together. Stay safe, stay warm, and thank you for your partnership in keeping our students safe!
