Drivers in Louisville, Kentucky should brace themselves for more lane closures on the Sherman Minton Bridge, as part of the ongoing construction.

The right lane on both sides were blocked starting Thursday night at 9 P.M., including the on-ramp from West Spring Street. Everything re-opened by Friday morning, just in time for people’s morning commutes.
