FDOT: U.S. 29 and Nine Mile Road Temporary Lane and Road Closures

Chipley– The following lane and road closures are scheduled for U.S. 29 and Nine Mile Road at the U.S. 29 overpass in Escambia County from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 6 through Tuesday, Jan. 8, as crews pour the deck for the new northbound bridge.

• U.S. 29: The outside, northbound lane will be closed at the Nine Mile Road overpass to provide a safe work zone for bridge crews.
• Nine Mile Road: Eastbound Nine Mile Road traffic will be reduced to one lane, diverted to U.S. 29 South, and able to make a U-turn at West Hood Drive to return to Nine Mile Road. Westbound traffic will utilize U.S. 29 North and U-turn at West 9 1/2 Mile Road to return to Nine Mile Road. Traffic control officers will be on-site to help direct traffic.
• Additionally, U.S. 29 traffic between Interstate 10 and 9 1/2 Mile Road may experience alternating lane closures as crews continue drainage and paving operations.

Construction activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. Drivers should use caution, especially at night, when traveling through the work zone, and watch for construction workers and equipment entering and exiting the roadway.
