Eastbound I-4 in Downtown Orlando Closing Nightly Oct. 2-3

Westbound I-4 rolling roadblocks and nightly ramp closures to occur simultaneously

ORLANDO - Eastbound Interstate 4 (I-4) between Gore Street and Amelia Street is closing from 12 a.m. to 5 a.m. early Monday, October 2, and early Tuesday, October 3.

The recommended detour around this eastbound I-4 closure is to exit at South Street (Exit 82B), travel north on Garland Avenue and reenter eastbound I-4 at the ramp located after the Amelia Street intersection.

In addition, the westbound and eastbound S.R. 408 exit ramps to eastbound I-4, the eastbound I-4 exit ramp to Amelia Street and eastbound I-4 entrance ramp from Anderson Street will be closed from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. on October 13. These nightly closures are necessary to remove two overhead sign structures on I-4.

Rolling roadblocks on westbound I-4 from Maitland Boulevard (State Road 414) to State Road 408 will occur between 12 a.m. and 5 a.m. on October 23 to aid in the removal of the sign structures.
