traffic closures

Officials are encouraging attendees and local residents to plan for traffic changes ahead of Thunder Over Louisville on Saturday. Here’s what people need to know before heading to their designated watch spots in Louisville and Southern Indiana.

The Clark Memorial Bridge, also known as the Second Street Bridge, will restrict traffic to two southbound lanes for emergency repairs.

The Sherman Minton Bridge reopened Wednesday to vehicular traffic following an emergency closure late last week.

The Sherman Minton Bridge closed Friday afternoon after a project team found a problem with floor beams. The group said late Sunday that it’s progressing toward reopening the structure.

The Clark Memorial Bridge will reopen by 6 p.m. Saturday, following a closure caused by a crash that left a semitruck dangling over the edge.

Drivers who frequently travel down Bardstown Road may need to plan alternate routes over the coming weeks.
