Evening I-10 Ramp Closure

The on ramp from south bound U.S. 29 to west bound I-10 in Escambia County will be closed Sunday, February 23, and Monday, February 24, as crews construct a temporary barrier wall. The temporary closure will be in effect from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Motorists will be directed to use the northbound U.S. 29 on ramp during the temporary closure. \r\n\r\nThis work is part of the I-10 resurfacing project which extends from U.S. 29 to east of Palafox Street. The project also includes the milling and resurfacing of all ramps and ramp shoulders associated with the U.S. 29/I-10 interchange, shoulder widening, guardrail upgrades, crash cushion replacement, removal of portable traffic monitoring sites (PTMS), installation of new signs, pavement markings and sodding. The entire project is slated for completion summer 2014.\r\n\r\nDuring construction drivers will encounter overnight lane restrictions on both I-10 and the U.S. 29/ I-10 interchange. Lane closures on I-10 and intermittent closures or restrictions on the interchange will be limited to 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. \r\n\r\nAll planned construction activities may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.
