Work Requires Overnight Lane Closures on I-85 Business in Guilford County

HIGH POINT – Drivers can expect overnight lane closures on I-85 Business/U.S. 29-70 as preparation begins next week for an interchange improvement project in High Point.

A contractor for the N.C. Department of Transportation Geotechnical Unit will perform soil boring tests as part of a p​​roject to improve the interchange​ at South Main Street.

The work will begin Sunday and is expected to last until March 30, and may only take place Sunday through Thursday between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m.

For safety purposes, a single lane will be closed during those times. Though the work will take place on both sides of the roadway, it will only occur in one direction at a time.

Drivers should pay close attention as they approach the work zone and anticipate possible delays because of lane closures.​
