Roadwork and night lane closures are set for I-95 north of I-16 beginning Tuesday and ending Thursday.

Contractors for Georgia DOT will be collecting data with a moving lane closure utilizing an impact attenuator truck along with law enforcement following to enhance safety and alert the traveling public.

These moving right-hand lane closures between I-16 and Georgia/South Carolina State line are scheduled next week from 9 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. Tuesday-Thursday. 

These temporary lane closures are necessary for the contractor to collect roadway data prior to a milling and resurfacing project on I-95 in Chatham and Effingham counties.

Whenever you approach a work zone: slow down; allow extra distance between vehicles; read signs; and expect the unexpected.
