Work takes place Sunday through Thursday nights from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. depending on the weather and other variables. There is no construction on holidays or weekends expect for Sunday nights. During construction, traffic is restricted to one lane in each direction.
Delays are significant.
The bridge hotline is a recorded number which is updated through the day when there are construction delays. The Highway Helpline is staffed 24-hours a day and has the latest information on road conditions throughout the state. The Smart Traffic Center, which is staffed 24 hours a day, operates and updates the electronic message signs which are located well in advance of the work zone. The signs warn motorists of delays and suggest alternate routes well in advance of the construction area. We continue to urge motorists to drive with extreme caution through the work zone.
