On Saturday, Gov. Andy Beshear announced the speed limit would be lowered on I-71 from I-264 in Jefferson County to the merger of I-71/I-75 at Verona in Boone County.
A series of lane closures began Thursday in Gallatin County due to slick road conditions that led to multiple stalled trucks and cars.
A single lane of I-71 north in Gallatin County reopened on Sunday and both lanes were back open Monday.
