I-95 Overland Bridge Replacement Project / Project Phases

Project Phases

I-95 Overland Bridge


Construction will occur in six phases. During each phase of work, traffic will be shifted to allow for other construction items to be completed.

Phase 1:

Phase 1

  • Remove median barrier wall from the Fuller Warren Bridge south in order to place temporary barrier wall for shifting traffic in preparation for widening
  • Begin widening the southern approaches of the Fuller Warren Bridge and the elevated roadway known as the Overland Bridge (overpass of Hendricks, Kings and Montana avenues)
  • Begin construction of the northbound parallel service road
  • Begin reconstruction of the southbound parallel service road south of the Overland Bridge
  • Begin construction of exit ramp from northbound I-95 to Atlantic Boulevard
  • Begin construction of exit ramp from the southbound Acosta Bridge Expressway to Gary Street

*Traffic impacts: All I-95 traffic will be shifted to the outside lanes from the Fuller Warren Bridge to Atlantic Boulevard and to the inside lanes from Atlantic Boulevard to north of Emerson Street. The southbound parallel service road traffic will be shifted to the inside lanes.

Phase 2:

Phase 2

  • Complete and open exit ramp from the southbound Acosta Bridge Expressway to Gary Street
  • Complete and open entrance ramp to the southbound parallel service road from the southbound Acosta Bridge Expressway
  • Complete and open entrance ramp to the southbound parallel service road from the southbound Main Street Bridge
  • Begin reconstruction of the I-95 overpass over the FEC railroad near Baptist Medical Center
  • Complete the construction of the outside eastbound lane on Atlantic Boulevard at I-95
  • Construct noise wall along I-95 northbound on the north end of the existing wall

*Traffic impacts: All I-95 traffic will be shifted to the outside lanes from the Fuller Warren Bridge to Hendricks Avenue (beginning of the Overland Bridge), then traffic will shift to the inside lanes between Hendricks and Montana avenues. Traffic will then shift to the outside lanes from Montana Avenue (end of the Overland Bridge) to Atlantic Boulevard and to the inside lanes from Atlantic Boulevard to north of Emerson Street.

Phase 3:

  • Begin construction of the exit ramp from northbound parallel service road to the northbound Main Street Bridge and Prudential Drive
  • Begin construction of exit ramp from the northbound parallel service road to the Acosta Bridge Expressway
  • Construct exit ramps from southbound parallel service road to Philips Highway/Kings Avenue
  • Construct entrance ramps from Philips Highway to the northbound parallel service road and to I-95 northbound
  • Open exit ramp from southbound I-95 to the southbound parallel service road
  • Open exit ramp from southbound parallel service road to eastbound Atlantic Boulevard
  • Begin widening I-95 south of Philips Highway
  • Begin construction of entrance ramp from westbound Atlantic Boulevard to the northbound parallel service road
  • Begin construction of ramp from southbound I-95 to the southbound parallel service road

* Traffic impacts: All I-95 traffic will be shifted to the outside lanes from the Fuller Warren Bridge to Hendricks Avenue (beginning of the Overland Bridge), then traffic will shift to the inside lanes between Hendricks and Montana avenues. Traffic will then shift to the outside lanes from Montana Avenue (end of the Overland Bridge) to just north of Atlantic Boulevard and to the inside lanes from just north of Atlantic Boulevard to north of Emerson Street.

Phase 4:

  • Shift traffic to the northbound parallel service road to reconstruct I-95 northbound
  • Complete the northbound parallel service road at the Atlantic Boulevard interchange

*Traffic impacts: All southbound access to eastbound Atlantic Boulevard and Philips Highway will shift to the southbound parallel service road.

Phase 5:

  • Construct remaining pavement between the Fuller Warren and Overland bridges
  • Shift southbound I-95 traffic to southbound parallel service road to complete construction of southbound I-95
  • Complete construction of the entrance ramps from Philips Highway to I-95 northbound and southbound
  • Complete construction of the I-95 overpass over the FEC railroad near Baptist Medical Center
  • Complete the entrance ramp to northbound I-95 from westbound Atlantic Boulevard
  • Complete entrance ramp from Philips Highway to the northbound parallel service road
  • Open entrance ramp from westbound Atlantic Boulevard to the northbound parallel service road
  • Open exit ramps from the southbound parallel service road to Philips Highway/Kings Avenue
  • Complete the ramp from southbound I-95 to the southbound parallel service road
  • Complete the exit ramp from the southbound parallel service road to eastbound Atlantic Boulevard

*Traffic impacts: Northbound I-95 traffic will be shifted to the newly constructed northbound parallel service road. Southbound I-95 traffic will remain on I-95. Northbound I-95 traffic will then remain on the northbound parallel service road. Southbound I-95 traffic will then be shifted to the completed northbound and southbound I-95 lanes.

Phase 6:

  • Complete construction and shift all traffic to final traffic pattern.
