I-84 EB Exit 25 Off-Ramp to Detour to Exit 23 Full info in link here
On the night of Wednesday, October 18, 2017, the existing EB 25 off-ramp will close.
Traffic will be detoured to the EB 23 off-ramp and then onto the new ramp to Harpers Ferry Road as follows:
- EB Exit 25 off-ramp traffic will exit at the EB 23 off-ramp and follow the detour signs.
- Traffic will split further ahead with EB 23 off-ramp traffic staying to the right and EB 25 off-ramp traffic and I-84 EB on-ramp staying to the left.
- After that split, I-84 EB traffic will proceed straight ahead while EB 25 off-ramp traffic will fork to the right, where it will proceed on the new ramp alignment under the Hamilton Avenue Bridge and continue for 3/4 mile where it will meet up with Harpers Ferry Road.
If inclement weather causes postponement, this will occur the following night.
