The detour for this closure will be to take Jefferson to I-44.

Crews will open one lane of eastbound I-64 to the 14th Street exit at  6 p.m. Saturday, January 7 to allow fans to get to the Blues home game.

One lane on westbound Interstate 64 between 6th Street and Jefferson will be closed between 5 a.m. and 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. During the same time, either the ramp from Broadway to westbound I-64 or the ramp from 10th street to I-64 will be closed, depending on if the left or right lane on westbound I-64 is closed.  Both ramps will not be closed at the same time.
