Weekend Interstate Closures Impact Huntersville, North Wichita, Kansas

Several road closures and construction projects are planned this weekend to improve traffic safety and flow. In Huntersville, North Carolina, Gilead Road will close from Friday night through Sunday for work on a new diverging diamond interchange on Interstate 77, part of a $30.8 million project delayed previously by rain. In Wichita, Kansas, both northbound and southbound lanes of Interstate 135 will be closed on Saturday and partially on Sunday around the North Junction Project, with detours in place to redirect traffic. Additionally, a section of Kansas Highway 15 near Udall will close from May 14 to 17 for railroad crossing work, with an approved detour route provided. Drivers in all affected areas are advised to follow posted signs, allow extra travel time, and use alternate routes as needed. These projects highlight ongoing efforts by state transportation departments to enhance infrastructure and ensure safer travel.
