Road Closure: Interstate 64 at Catlettsburg

Crews working on repairs

FLEMINGSBURG, Ky. – Due to an embankment failure, westbound Interstate 64 has been closed at Catlettsburg. A detour will be in operation while repairs take place.

The interstate is closed just west of Exit 191, the Catlettsburg exit. While eastbound traffic is unaffected, all westbound through traffic is being detoured along the following route:

  • Exit 6 at Huntington, across the Ohio River to US 52 in Ohio, then west on US 52 to the downtown Ashland (12th Street bridge) exit, then west on US 60 back to I-64 at Exit 185 at Cannonsburg. Detour signs are in place.

The Kentucky Department of Highways is expediting repairs to reopen the interstate as quickly as possible.
