Motorists should be advised that nightly lane closures on Interstate 75 (I-75) northbound, beginning at the County Road 462 overpass in Sumter County (near I-75 northbound Mile Marker 331) and continuing north for approximately two miles (near I-75 northbound Mile Marker 333), will begin as early as Wednesday, February 19.

The nightly single- and double-lane lane closures are scheduled to start as early as 8 p.m. each Sunday through Thursday night and continue through 7:30 a.m. the next morning (Monday through Friday).

These lane closures are needed as the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) does shoulder work in this section of I-75 northbound. The work is expected to take approximately five weeks.

FDOT advises motorists to reduce their speed, follow all posted signage, and exercise extra caution in the work zone. Delays may occur. Construction schedules are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
