Overnight Ramp Closures

  • ​Ramp from northbound I-95 to westbound I-695 (inner loop): Closure and detour overnight, 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Thursday, May 22-25. A detour will be in place to direct motorists to proceed north past I-695, take exit ramp to westbound Caton Avenue, proceed west on Caton Avenue to southbound I-95, then to westbound I-695.  
  • Ramp from southbound I-95 to eastbound I-695 (outer loop): Closure and detour overnight, 8 p.m. to 5 a.m., Wednesday and Thursday, May 24-25.
