Another I-65 Question

[dapperdan]

We're going to be driving up from Cave City KY through Louisville on through to Indy, actually Greenwood to visit friends in the area. What kind of construction will we be encountering north bound on 65? Any ideas or tips would be appreciated.

UPDATE: We went through Louisville yesterday around 11:00am. Going north over the new bridge was fairly easy although you guys were right, the signage was a bit confusing! As we approached Sellerburg the north bound lanes backed up big time due to construction, we were down to 10 mph for a while but we made it through OK and still made Greenwood IN by 2:00 pm.

Thanks again for the info.

We just came back to Michigan from Florida via I-65 this past Tuesday/Wednesday. The construction of the new bridge over the Ohio River in Louisville is a bit distracting due to the signage and lane shifting, but it wasn't bad at all (and we were pulling our 5th wheel). North of the river there wasn't much construction at all until we got maybe 75 miles north of there. They had some orange barrels up and some lane shifts, but we had 2 lanes on our side. This construction went on for several miles and ended not far south of Indy.

Just did the same and Mike is right on. The new bridge over the Ohio river is open and is a BIG improvement over the previous bridge, even with the ongoing construction.
