Chipley, Fla. - Interstate 10, between U.S. 29 and I-110, has been reduced to two travel lanes in each direction. The U.S. 29 northbound ramp to I-10 eastbound will also be closed. Traffic on U.S. 29 northbound will be detoured to make a U-turn at Broad Street to access I-10 eastbound.
On I-10, the outside lane will be closed in each direction to allow crews to perform shoulder and bridge work to widen the interstate.
These activities are part of a $236 million construction project that is improving capacity and safety for the 62,000 drivers who travel the I-10/U.S. 29 interchange daily. The project is estimated to be completed in 2030.
All activities are weather-dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. Drivers are reminded to use caution, especially at night, when traveling through a work zone and to watch for construction workers and equipment entering and exiting the roadway.
