ST. LOUIS – Drivers on northbound Interstate 55 in Jefferson County should give themselves extra time when traveling this weekend. One lane on northbound I-55 will be closed at Route A starting on Friday, July 7 at 1 p.m. until Monday, July 10 at 5 a.m.
Drivers are encouraged to use the zipper merge when traveling through the lane closure by filling up both lanes of traffic and then taking turns merging just before the closure point. This will actually make traffic flow better and decrease merging dangers.
Drivers should also consider alternate routes when traveling from eastbound I-44 to Route 141 overnight Friday, July 7.
Crews will close all but one lane on the ramp from eastbound I-44 to Route 141 on Friday, July 7 at 7 p.m. The ramp will fully close at 10 p.m. Crews will be moving the mounting for an overhead sign and replacing a pipe underneath the ramp. This work is in addition to a scheduled closure of up to two lanes on eastbound I-44 between Route 109 and Route 141, starting that night at 7 p.m., for resurfacing work.
Drivers can continue east, exit at Bowles and loop back around to westbound I-44 to get to Route 141 to detour around the closure.
The ramp and roadway should reopen by 7 a.m. Saturday, July 8.
