New traffic pattern to begin Aug. 19 on Airport Drive
Table of Contents
A new traffic pattern will begin on Airport Drive Aug. 19 at 8 p.m. as part of the I-64/Airport Drive bridge replacement and interchange improvements project.
All northbound and southbound lanes will be shifted east on Airport Drive to allow crews to work on the western part of the bridge. The traffic shift is expected to be complete by the morning of Aug. 20 and will be in place until further notice.
The primary purpose of the $35 million project is to replace the I-64 eastbound and westbound bridges over Airport Drive, increase vertical clearance on Airport Drive and perform all necessary approach work to accommodate the vertical increase. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late 2022.
