New traffic pattern in Providence today

The next phase of Iway construction begins today with one ramp opening and another closing.

The Rhode Island Department of Transportation plans to open the new Exit 2 ramp to India Street today and close Exit 3 to Gano Street.

The new ramp is only accessible to drivers who are driving north on Route 95 and take Exit 19 to the Iway bridge. They can access the new ramp onto Gano Street.

RIDOT plans to close the old ramp from Route 95 North to Route 195. Until then, there will be two Exit 2 off ramps –– the one opening today and Exit 2 off the old I-195 which leads to Wickenden Street.

RIDOT will have more information at a press conference at 10 a.m. today, when officials release more details about the Iway schedule for the rest of the month.

For more information, visit the Department’s Web site, call in for updates at 5-1-1, listen to the Highway Advisory Radio System 1630 AM or call Customer Service at 401-222-2450.
