I-24 down to one-lane in the morning

Commuters heading toward Paducah should be aware of a traffic issue on I-24 in the morning.

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to restrict westbound traffic to one lane on I-24 in Lyon County Tuesday. The one-lane area will be between Kuttawa and the truck weigh scales west of the Grand Rivers exit. Potholes are being repaired on the interstate. Lane restrictions are likely to be up from about 7 a.m. to about noon Tuesday. Westbound motorists should be alert for slowing and merging traffic as they approach the area.
