Plan Ahead: Lane Closures
and Traffic Shifts
|
We started paving I-105 on Aug. 1. To help get the work done faster, safer and lessen the amount of time there will be traffic impacts, we are preparing for our first of two weekend lane closures with traffic shifted.
Beginning August 4, we're moving the eastbound traffic into the westbound lanes for efficiency and the safety of our workers.
Next weekend, we are shifting traffic again but in the opposite direction. Westbound traffic will shift into the eastbound lanes.
We have diagrams showing the plan for each of the weekend lane closures on our project webpage.
We are asking that you consider using a different route, carpooling, or taking the bus. Drive safely and watch for construction signs and workers.
Remember, today's delays lead to a smoother, safer ride tomorrow.

Impacts
Crews started setting up the work zone and construction began on Aug. 1 and will continue through the month. Plan ahead, you can expect:
- Delays.
- Construction noise.
- Lane and ramp closures.
- One more weekend closure with traffic shifted. This allows us to get more work done per shift, so construction will finish faster. It also creates a safer work zone for our crews.
- Due to location and safety, there is no pedestrian access during construction.
- A speed reduction to 45 mph in the work zone.
Schedule

Aug. 4 - 7: Starting at 8 p.m., we will shift traffic to the westbound lanes near Country Club Road to past Coburg Road while we pave and apply permanent striping on the eastbound lanes. We will reopen lanes by 5 a.m. Monday.
