PULASKI COUNTY | December 3, 2024
NR #24-381
Construction to widen Highway 67/167 (I-57) to six lanes between Main Street and Vandenberg Boulevard in Jacksonville requires the permanent closure of the southbound N. James Street off-ramp (Exit 10A) beginning 8 p.m. Tuesday, December 3.
Weather permitting, crews will close the southbound N. James Street off-ramp (Exit 10A) to allow for the construction of a new off-ramp. Traffic will be directed to use either Vandenberg Boulevard (Exit 11) or Main Street (Exit 9) to access N. James Street and surrounding areas.
Traffic will be controlled with message boards, construction barrels, barricades, and signage. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds.
