US 395 paving project to temporarily close ramps

HATTON – Crews working for the state Department of Transportation will be temporarily closing the southbound on and off-ramp from Highway 395 at the State Route 26 interchange.

The closure is part of a paving project on southbound Hwy 395 between Lee Road and the Franklin County Line.

Southbound on-ramp closure

On Monday, August 3, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., crews will be closing the southbound on-ramp from Hwy 26 to Hwy 395 for crews to pave the on-ramp. During this time Hwy 26 will also be reduced to one lane, with two-way flagged operations to allow crews to pave the eastbound lane of Hwy 26.

During the on-ramp closure, the southbound off-ramp from Hwy 395 to Hwy 26 will remain open. Drivers who use the off-ramp to access the Hatton-Coulee Rest Area will not have access to southbound Hwy 395.

Southbound off-ramp closure

On Tuesday, August 4, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., crews will be closing the southbound off-ramp from Hwy 395 to Hwy 26 to allow crews to pave the off-ramp. Southbound drivers needing to access Hwy 26 will need to find alternate routes. During the off-ramp closure, crews will also be paving the westbound lane of Hwy 26. Drivers can expect Hwy 26 to be reduced to one lane with two-way flagged operations.

Drivers can expect delays during the ramp closures.
