CAUTION: Motorcyclists, Cyclists, and Drivers
There are trenches, uneven road surfaces, and loose gravel throughout the corridor. Please use caution and prioritize safety while travelling through the construction area. Reduce speed, follow posted signage, and be alert of crew members and equipment.
The project is utilizing one-way traffic systems to manage vehicle flow through the work zones. Drivers utilizing turnouts within the project area are advised to wait until seeing vehicles traveling in the same direction of your destination before safely re-entering the travel lane.
