Motorists are advised that the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is implementing nightly closures of the westbound Interstate 4 (I-4) exit ramp to State Road (S.R.) 528 (Beachline Expressway) at Exit 72 on Wednesday, September 3 and Thursday, September 4.

The closure will begin as early as 10 p.m. each night and is expected to reopen by 6 a.m. the following morning, with the last closure opening on the morning of Friday, September 5.

This closure is necessary to install overhead signage. This work is part of the ramp widening project on the westbound I-4 exit ramp to eastbound S.R. 528. These improvements will improve capacity and traffic flow at this busy interchange.

September 3-4 Detour Information

Motorists traveling west on I-4 who wish to access S.R. 528 will be directed to exit at Exit 75B onto southbound Kirkman Road (S.R. 435), then continue south to Sand Lake Road staying in the left lane to turn left onto eastbound Sand Lake Road. Follow Sand Lake Road to John Young Parkway (S.R. 423) and turn right onto southbound John Young Parkway, proceeding south to S.R. 528. Drivers who wish to return to I-4 should continue west to the end of S.R. 528 and take the ramp to westbound I-4.

FDOT advises motorists to follow all posted detour signs. Construction schedules are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
