I-24 welcome center in reopens today

The welcome center for westbound travelers on Interstate 24 in Christian County reopens today, until Tuesday. Motorists will be able to use the facility during the busy Memorial Day weekend.

The facility was scheduled to reopen yesterday; however, recent storms in the area hampered the necessary paving work on the welcome center approaches.

Crews will close the facility on Tuesday for two weeks to continue ongoing pavement rehabilitation work along I-24 at mile points 85-93.

The rest area is at mile point 93 near the Kentucky/Tennessee line.
