FDOT plans another temporary I-75 interchange closure

The Florida Department of Transportation plans to temporarily close an interchange on Interstate 75 in Southwest Florida again.

The closure is a transportation event involving FDOT and the I-75 interchange. The available announcement does not identify the interchange by name, the closure date, the hours, the reason for the work or the routes drivers should use instead.

Drivers who may travel through Southwest Florida should check FDOT’s current road information before leaving. Until FDOT publishes the timing and detour instructions, travelers cannot determine from the announcement when the closure will occur or which nearby roads will be affected.

What is known

What remains to be confirmed

The closure schedule, interchange name, expected duration and detour plan are not identified. FDOT’s traffic updates will be the place to check for those operational details before the closure begins.

What drivers should do

Travelers should allow time to check FDOT information before using I-75 in Southwest Florida. Drivers should follow posted signs and any instructions issued by FDOT when the closure is in effect.
