(WJAR) — The two right lanes on I-95 South near the Elmwood Avenue/Route 1 off-ramp will be temporarily closed on Friday staring at 8 PM.
The lane closure is for replacement of the I-95 southbound bridge over Elmwood Ave.
RIDOT said the high-speed lane on I-95 North will be closed during the weekend.
Drivers should plan for delays and use Route 10 and I-295 instead.
This bridge replacement is the first of 15 on the list to be removed and replaced along I-95 and Route 10 between Providence and Warwick.
All lanes near Elmwood Ave are expected to be open by 5:00 a.m. Monday, just in time for the morning commute.
