WINSTON-SALEM – Nightly lane closures are scheduled for next week as the project to rehabilitate the pavement and perform preservation work on bridges along Interstate 40 in Forsyth County gets underway.
Weather permitting, contract crews plan to close two of three lanes of I-40 East starting at 8 p.m. each night Sunday through Thursday and reopen the lanes by 5 a.m. the following mornings.
The closures Sunday night will be from just west of Stratford Road (Exit 189) to just east of Peters Creek Parkway (Exit 192). The work and lane closures will progress east on the interstate each of the following four nights.
Drivers should watch for signage indicating the lane reduction, slow down and be mindful of crews working near the travel lanes in this area.
