To minimize disruption to traffic the work is scheduled to take place overnight from 6:45 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. The restrictions will be lifted as indicated weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances.
The Zipper Merge will be in effect at this location. As drivers approach the “lane closed ahead” sign and traffic starts to back up, stay in your current lane up to the point of merge. Then take turns in "zipper" fashion with other drivers to safely and smoothly ease into the remaining lane. Drivers in the through lane must take turns merging.
Slow down, pay attention and respect work zones. Watch for pedestrians and work crews, and for everyone’s safety, please obey all detours, signs and barriers.
