Starting on Thursday, August 29th at 7 pm, a temporary closure will be in effect for I-64 Eastbound from milepost 61 (Ashley/Centralia Exit) to exit 73 (I-57 split) until Friday, August 30, 2024, at 6 am.
During this time, Eastbound traffic will be detoured to an alternate route, which involves taking US Highway 51 South to IL HWY 15 East to I-57. The closure is necessary for pavement and bridge deck patching.
Please note that the Eastbound exit/entrance ramps at the Woodlawn Exit (Exit 69) will also be closed during this period. Expect an increase in traffic along IL HWY 15 from the Washington County line to I-57 in Mt. Vernon.
Travelers are advised to plan their journeys accordingly, anticipate potential delays, and consider adjusting their schedules to accommodate the closure and possible congestion in the area.
