BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2021 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — The Florida Department of Transportation says it will close I-95 Southbound — completely — during the overnight hours of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday December 20th through 22nd.
From FDOT:
“I-95 southbound lanes at Congress Avenue will be closed to traffic overnight, 11 p.m. until 5 a.m., Monday, Dec. 20 through Wednesday, Dec. 22 for beam setting operations at the Clint Moore Road bridge over I-95. Traffic will be detoured via the I- 95 southbound exit ramp to Congress Avenue, Peninsula Corp. Drive, Congress Avenue and Yamato Road. FHP will be on site to assist motorists.”
It’s all part of the I-95 Express Lane project which FDOT describes this way for South Palm Beach County:
“95 Express Lanes Phase 3B-2 will extend the existing Express Lanes north from just south of Glades Road to south of Linton Boulevard in Palm Beach County. One lane will be added and the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane will be converted to create two Express Lanes in each direction; the number of General Use lanes will remain the same. Access to the Express Lanes will be provided via two designated ingress and egress locations—between Glades Road and Spanish River Boulevard and between Yamato Road and Linton Boulevard. The scope of work includes reconfiguration of the SR 808/Glades Road Interchange to a Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI).”
