GDOT: Ramp & Interstate Closure Advisory for the I-16 at I-95 Improvement Projects Through December 22

FYI for those traveling to and from Chatham

Weather permitting, Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) construction partners will close interstate lanes at the locations below for the 16@95 Improvement Projects, which will widen I-16 and reconstruct the I-16/I-95 Interchange. The lane closures are necessary for widening activities for I-16, work on the new I-16/ I-95 Interchange bridges, and bridge work at the I-16/I-516 Interchange.
