Part of several traffic shifts downtown until December
ST. LOUIS – Drivers heading downtown this weekend should be aware of several lane and ramp closures along northbound I-55 and eastbound I-44.
These closures are to restripe lanes for continuing bridge work on northbound I-55/eastbound I-44 between the I-44/I-55 interchange and the PSB. Several of the ramp closures will remain in effect until December.
This weekend, drivers can expect:
- Crews to close northbound I-55 at Truman Parkway/eastbound I-44 from 11 p.m. on Friday, April 14 until 8 a.m. Saturday, April 15. The detour for the ramp closure is to take the ramp to westbound I-44, exit at Jefferson, turn left and get back onto eastbound I-44.
- Crews to close one lane on northbound I-55 between Gravois and Park on Friday, April 14 at 8 p.m. In addition, crews will close one lane on eastbound I-44 between the Lafayette exit and Park on Friday, April 14 at 8 p.m. These lanes will reopen by noon on Sunday, April 16.
- Crews to close the ramp from northbound I-55 to the Poplar Street Bridge on Friday, April 14 at 8 p.m. This ramp will reopen by noon on Saturday, April 15.
- Crews to close the ramp from Gravois/12th Street to northbound I-55 on Friday, April 14 and 7 p.m. ramp reopens Sunday, April 16 by noon.
- Crews to close the ramp from 8th and Marion to northbound I-55 Friday, April 14 at 7 p.m. This ramp will remain closed until December.
After noon on Sunday, April 16, drivers will have three narrowed and shifted lanes on eastbound I-44/northbound I-55 between the I-44/I-55 interchange and the Poplar Street Bridge. These narrowed, shifted lanes will remain until the project is complete in December.
