GARNER - Contractors for the N.C. Department of Transportation plan to close two ramps overnight for construction, one tonight and one Tuesday night as part of the Interstate 40 Widening project from Southeast Raleigh to Clayton.
Lane closures on the ramp from U.S. 70 Business onto I-40 West will begin tonight at 9 with a full closure from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., weather permitting.
A detour will lead drivers using U.S. 70 Business West to turn right onto Jones Sausage Road then left onto I-40 West. Drivers on U.S. 70 Business East will be sent to Greenfield Parkway to turn around to then access I-40 West.
On Tuesday night, crews will start lane closures at 9 with a full closure from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. for I-40 West Exit 306-A from I-40 West to U.S. 70 Business.
This detour will direct drivers to take the next exit at Jones Sausage Road (Exit 303), take a left onto Jones Sausage Road, and then take I-40 East to Exit 306 to get onto U.S. 70 Business West.
Drivers are encouraged to take their time and use caution while driving in the work zone.
