BUFFALO – WYDOT will be overseeing the rehabilitation of bridge decks, concrete roadway and ramps on the I-90 and I-25 interchanges this summer.
Work has begun on the bridges on the east and westbound lanes of I-90 at Exit 58, US 16 Interchange in Buffalo. Contractors will be doing rehabilitation work on the bridge decks and then resurfacing them.
Traffic will be narrowed down to one lane at the bridges, with reduced speeds of 45 MPH and flagging operations.
In addition to the bridge work, four ramps will be repaired as well. Several concrete slabs on those ramps need replaced and this work will require the ramps to be closed for a period of approximately 30 days each. Detours will be put in place during those closures. The sequence of ramp closures will begin in mid-April starting with the eastbound off ramp at Exit 58 of I-90. The remaining three ramps will close according to the schedule below.
- Exit 300, I-25 northbound ramp to I-90 eastbound - mid-May
- Exit 58, I-90 westbound off ramp - early June
- Exit 56B, I-90 westbound to I-25 southbound - early August
The detour route for all closures will be via I-25, Hart Street and US 16.
This project has an expected completion date of Oct. 31, 2019.
