Lanes scheduled to close in June for I-55 and Crump Interchange improvements

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Improvements to the I-55 and Crump Interchange will bring some lane closures in the coming weeks.

Starting on Monday, June 6, crews will temporarily close lanes from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. on I-55 southbound from the end of the I-55 bridge to near Wisconsin Avenue. The Tennessee Department of Transportation says they will be installing a concrete barrier rail.

The closures are expected to last about eight months.

The I-55 southbound ramp will be reduced to one lane; I-55 southbound will also close the shoulder and one lane leaving two lanes open for drivers.

TDOT says the lane closures are part of a $141.2 million project.
