ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – Motorists should be advised that the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is implementing a nighttime road closure of eastbound Interstate 4 (I-4) under the bridge to the eastbound Beachline Expressway (State Road (S.R.) 528) starting as early as 10 p.m. Wednesday, August 7, and is expected to reopen by 6 a.m. the following morning.

The closure is necessary for crews to move a crane for further pile driving work as part of the S.R. 528 ramp widening project.

During the closure, motorists traveling on eastbound I-4 must follow detour signs and take Exit 72 onto the eastbound Beachline Expressway to Exit 1 onto International Drive. From there, motorists will turn right onto International Drive and take the loop ramp onto westbound Beachline Expressway, then take the exit to return to eastbound I-4. Please see the attached detour map.

FDOT advises motorists to follow all posted signs. Construction schedules are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

Please continue to use caution while driving through active construction zones. Remember to always be alert while riding or driving.
