SALINE COUNTY | July 29, 2023

Construction to widen Interstate 30 (I-30) to six lanes in Saline County requires overnight ramp and lane closures at Exit 114 (Highway 67/229) Tuesday night, July 30 through Thursday morning, August 8.  Weather permitting, the closures will occur nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. to allow crews to perform paving operations. 

The following lane and ramps will be closed with detours signed as noted:

• Northbound lane on Highway 67/229 – Traffic will be detoured onto I-30 east, take the off-ramp to Exit 116 (Sevier Street/South Street) and follow the frontage road to Highway 67/229.
• I-30 eastbound off-ramp – Traffic will continue on I-30 east, take the off-ramp to Exit 116 (Sevier Street/South Street) and follow the frontage road to Highway 67/229.
• I-30 westbound off-ramp – Traffic will take the off-ramp at Exit 116 (Sevier Street/South Street) and follow the frontage road to Highway 229.
• I-30 westbound on-ramp for northbound traffic on Highway 67/229 –Traffic will take I-30 east, take the off-ramp at Exit 116 (Sevier Street/South Street), and return to I-30 west.
• I-30 westbound on-ramp for southbound traffic on Highway 67/229 – Traffic will take I-30 east, take the off-ramp at Exit 116 (Sevier Street/South Street), and return to I-30 west.
