• Howard Avenue ramps
• Holt Avenue ramps
• Lapham Boulevard ramps
• National Avenue and 6th Street ramps

Additional project improvements:

• Partial deck replacement on Howard Avenue bridge over I-43
• Bridge deck overlay on Lapham Boulevard and Howard Avenue bridges over I-43

Traffic Impacts:

Motorists can expect overnight ramp closures for paving operations and daily lane closures for intersection work and bridge deck overlays.

Northbound I-43 exit ramp to Holt Avenue to close for approximately 30 days for pavement replacement.

Multiple overnight closures of I-43 and Howard Avenue bridge for critical bridge operations.

Additional ramp and lane closures will take place as needed. Closures of consecutive ramps will be avoided.
