Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) has announced potential traffic impacts due to construction activities related to the 16@95 Improvement Projects. These projects aim to widen I-16 and reconstruct the I-16/I-95 Interchange. Weather permitting, interstate lanes and ramps will be closed at specified locations for necessary widening activities on I-16, as well as bridge work on I-95 and at the I-16/I-516 Interchange.
Daytime lane closures are scheduled from Monday, July 14 through Saturday, July 19 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on various sections of I-16 westbound, eastbound, and both directions of I-516.
Nighttime closures are also planned from Monday, July 14 through Saturday, July 19 between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m., with additional double-lane closures on I-95 overpass during certain hours.
Continuous right-lane closure is scheduled from Friday, July 11 through Monday, July 14 and again from Friday, July 18 through Monday, July 21 at the I-16/I-516 Interchange.
