MERIDIAN, Miss. (Queen City Newsfeed) — The Mississippi Department of Transportation announced earlier today that it will implement temporary overnight lane closures on I-20/59 in Lauderdale County starting Tuesday night.
Crews will close the right lane of I-20/59 eastbound, the eastbound off-ramp at Exit 150, and the left lane of I-20/59 westbound between the 65th Avenue bridge and the SR 19 bridge in Meridian. The closures will run from 10 p.m. Tuesday, September 15, until 5 a.m. Wednesday, September 16.
MDOT crews will use the closure window to remove and repair a damaged sign truss along the interstate.
