Motorists are advised that the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is implementing overnight closures of Sand Lake Road (State Road (S.R.) 482) under Interstate 4 (I-4) Wednesday, February 4, and Thursday, February 5. The closures will begin as early as 1:30 a.m. and will reopen by 6 a.m. the same morning.

On February 4 and 5, crews will close all lanes of Sand Lake Road under I-4. Left-turn movements from Sand Lake Road to the I-4 entrance ramps will be restricted, and motorists exiting I-4 at Sand Lake Road will be limited to right turns only.

These closures are necessary for bridge beam setting over Sand Lake Road as part of the improvements to the I-4 and Sand Lake Road interchange.
