May 11, 201610 yr Just saw this.... Memorial Parkway at the Interstate 471 overpass will shut down for 60 days while crews work to restore the bridge. The $1.3 million project begins Monday with intermittent lane closures. The full closure of Memorial Parkway starts June 20. Here is a tentative schedule from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet: May 23 - June 6: I-471 northbound ramp (Exit 4) will be closed. June 6 - June 20: I-471 exit ramp (Exit 4) will close. June 20 - Aug. 15: Full closure of the Memorial Parkway Bridge. This could cause major headaches for commutes from Fort Thomas, Bellevue, and Newport as well as downtown traffic that shops at the Pavilion Kroger in Newport.
May 11, 201610 yr This is going to be a major headache... I use that ramp everyday and I know the traffic to try taking the Bellevue route will be a disaster.
May 11, 201610 yr Author I use it as well. I'm going to have to go up and over the Woodlawn hump to get to and from the highway. I refuse to use the Bellevue(Party Source) routes.
May 12, 201610 yr The Woodlawn hump is the only way I go to the Kroger area anymore, it feels like insider knowledge for us Fort Thomas people lol
