RALEIGH — As part of the Interstate 440 Improvements project, N.C. Department of Transportation contractors are scheduled to close the ramp from I-440 East to Western Boulevard (Exit 2) tomorrow.
The ramp will close from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. tomorrow to allow crews to perform clearing operations at the top of the ramp and along the right eastbound lane of Western Boulevard which will also be closed from the I-440 bridge to Chaney Road.
A detour will lead drivers to exit at Hillsborough Street (Exit 3), turn right, and then take I-440 West back to Western Boulevard.
This closure is weather dependent and subject to change.
Motorists should allow extra time to navigate the detour and slow down and pay attention throughout the work zone.
