Please review the document carefully.  There are some new items and some old items have changes within the project description.  Even though the Road Show says for the week of August 2^nd, which is a Monday, we have included some items that are taking place this weekend.

Inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances may occur, so the information below is strictly of an advisory nature and is subject to change with no notice.

Pothole patching, sweeping, drain & ditch cleaning, pavement marking, and maintenance crews may work on major interstates in the Louisville Metro area only during non-peak daytime hours and at night.  Motorists should watch for roadside maintenance and pavement marking crews on interstates and highways throughout the rest of the district on a daily basis.
