The other project involves repairs to the I-24 West ramp at the I-65/I-24 junction just north of Trinity Lane.
The closures are as follows:
I-24 West Ramp Repair
Friday November 12th, 8:00pm through Monday November 15th, 6:00am. – There will be one lane closed on the I-65 North ramp to I-24 West in order to perform ramp repairs. One ramp lane will remain open.
