Motorists are advised that the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will implement overnight closures of the westbound Interstate 4 (I-4) exit ramp to eastbound State Road (S.R.) 528 (Beachline Expressway) at Exit 72 on Thursday, January 8, and nightly from Sunday, January 11, through Wednesday, January 14.

The closures will begin as early as 10 p.m. each night and are expected to reopen by 6 a.m. the following morning, with the last closure opening on the morning of Thursday, January 15. 

These closures are necessary for paving work and a traffic shift. The work is part of a larger project to widen the westbound I-4 exit ramp to eastbound S.R. 528, which will improve capacity and traffic flow at this busy interchange upon completion.

See detour map and information below.

Detour Information

On the nights of January 8 and January 11-14, motorists traveling from westbound I-4 to eastbound S.R. 528 will exit early at Exit 75B and head south on Kirkman Road (S.R. 435) to Sand Lake Road (S.R. 482), staying in the left lane and turning left onto eastbound Sand Lake Road. From there, motorists will continue east, then turn right onto southbound John Young Parkway (S.R. 423) and proceed to S.R. 528.

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