Widespread Interstate Lane,Ramp Closures Impact Michigan,Ohio,North Carolina Traffic

Several highway projects and closures are impacting drivers across multiple states this weekend and beyond. In Charlotte, North Carolina, a significant bridge construction project on Interstate 85 through University City will cause lane closures in both directions until mid-September, with the new bridge designed to feature the city's name and crown logo and improve traffic flow near key interchanges. Additionally, ramp closures on I-485 in Charlotte are scheduled for overnight hours to facilitate the final stages of the express lanes project, with detours in place to maintain safety and improve future traffic efficiency. In Michigan, multiple ramps and lanes on I-696 in Farmington Hills will be closed from July 12 to 13 for pavement marking, potentially causing delays. Ohio’s Interstate 480 westbound exit ramp to Grayton Road will close overnight on a Friday for pavement repairs, adding to ongoing long-term ramp and lane restrictions in the Cleveland area. Meanwhile in Florida, Interstate 75 northbound is closed at Highway 484 due to a truck striking an overpass, resulting in traffic being diverted and increased congestion on alternate routes through Marion County.
