- Motorists can expect overnight lane closures within the project limits for milling and paving operations on S.R. 776. Stay alert for traffic shifts and lane merges during the construction.
- Motorists can expect intermittent lane closures/lane shifts as bicycle lane separators are installed on northbound and southbound S.R. 776 south of Dearborn Street.
- Motorists can expect intermittent daytime lane closures as crews prepare and install median modifications in the center lanes. Please watch for workers and lane shifts during this operation.
- To keep the road open during construction, motorists can expect crews to work one lane at a time. This may cause uneven pavement on sections of roadway.
- Crews and equipment may be present within the project limits during daytime/nighttime hours.
- Please expect intermittent loud noises from construction equipment, back up alarms, and vehicles moving within the project limits
- Please use caution when traveling through active construction zones and follow posted speed limits.
