Drivers in Franklin County who use the I-44 and Route 47 interchange should be aware of a ramp closure this weekend lasting ten days.

Starting at 7 a.m., Saturday, July 16, crews will close the I-44 eastbound exit ramp to Route 47. The ramp is expected to reopen with southbound Route 47 access on Tuesday, July 26.
