In addition to the lane reductions, the Green River eastbound on-ramp at exit 89 (west side of Green River) will be closed for up to two days. Residents and travelers will be able to exit off the interstate at exit 89, but will not be able to enter the interstate at that location for the duration of the maintenance. However, motorists and commuters are able to enter the interstate at exit 91 on the east end of Green River.
Signs and traffic control devices will be used to notify the traveling public of the lane closures, speed reductions, and the closure of the on-ramp.
