Two I-75 ramps to close

Two Interstate 75 exit ramps in Gainesville will be closed this week for construction, which may cause some traffic congestion on the interstate.

The northbound exit ramp onto Newberry Road will be closed from 9 p.m. today until 5 a.m. Wednesday. The southbound exit ramp onto Newberry Road will be closed Wednesday from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. Thursday.

Traffic will be detoured to either Archer Road or Northwest 39th Avenue during the ramp closures.

The Florida Department of Transportation paid D.A.B. Constructors Inc. $2.2 million to complete the project.

The ramps will close to allow workers to continue to work on the exits. The project to improve the ramps began last March.

Laurie Windham, spokeswoman for the project, said two new lanes will be added to the northbound exit. The other three ramps have been resurfaced, but the southbound ramp needs extra paving.
