TRAFFIC ALERT: I-95, Dixie Highway, SR7 All Set For Trouble This Week

Boca Raton. Delray Beach. Boynton Beach. Lake Worth. Wellington.

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — Expect major headaches this week if you’re driving pretty much anywhere in Palm Beach County. The Florida Department of Transportation has major projects, closures and lane grabs lined up for the next several days. We note that Palm Beach County did not process its list for the upcoming week by publication time, so this list is solely state projects.
