Traffic alert: Partial lane shutdowns on Dixie Highway in Kenton County expected during daytime hours on Monday
On Monday, August 11, 2025, motorists traveling on Dixie Highway (U.S. 25) in Kenton County were advised of single lane closures due to a maintenance project by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). The work, carried out by the KYTC Kenton County maintenance crew, aimed to fill sinkholes at three specific locations.
The work zones were situated at Dixie Highway northbound at Garvey Avenue (5.72 mile point), Dixie Highway northbound at Clover Avenue (6.46 mile point), and Dixie Highway northbound near Kenton Lands Road (KY 2373) (6.75 mile point). Crews worked on one location at a time and progressed to the next upon completion.
The single lane closures caused some traffic delays during the day as motorists were restricted to one lane while the repair work was underway. The expected impact included slower traffic flow and potential congestion, especially during peak daytime hours between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Drivers were advised to expect delays passing through the affected areas.
While no official alternate routes were specified for this specific closure on August 11, motorists can consider nearby parallel roads or interstates such as I-71/75 for longer-distance rerouting. Common alternate routes near Dixie Highway for north-south travel in Kenton County can be useful in such situations.
The maintenance project was expected to be completed on Monday, August 11, at 4 p.m., weather permitting. Signage was placed to warn motorists of the upcoming lane closure and work zone. Motorists were advised to drive carefully to ensure crew safety.
Project schedules may change due to inclement weather or unforeseen circumstances. For ongoing or future lane closures, KYTC updates are the best source for information and recommended detours.
