FLORENCE, S.C. (WBTW) – Three on-ramps to I-95 in Florence will be closed on Tuesday and traffic in the northbound lanes will be slowed due to repairs.
The state Department of Transportation will be doing bridge repairs starting at 5:45 a.m. that will require the slowing of traffic in the northbound lanes between mile marker 160 and mile marker 175 and the closing of on-ramps at exit 164 (US-52), Exit 169 (TV Road), and Exit 170 (SC-327).
SCHP will pace all lanes in the northbound direction to allow speeds to be reduced to approximately 10-15 MPH while crews perform work within both travel lanes over the Great Pee Dee River.
The pace operation is expected to last about 45 minutes.
Motorists traveling along this northbound section of I-95 are advised to use caution in the work zone and expect traffic congestion.
Motorists are also encouraged to use alternate routes or the dedicated detour to avoid severe congestion on I-95 in the northbound direction.
