Nebraska Department of Transportation details Interstate 180 closures for bridge demolition
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — The Nebraska Department of Transportation on Monday announced the closure of Interstate 180 for a bridge demolition next week.
On May 18 and May 20, the southbound lanes of I-180 will be closed at 9 p.m., weather permitting.
During that time, the southbound lanes will be detoured at the I-180 and Interstate 80 interchange, routed west to the Highway 77 interchange, and directed to West O Street.
On May 19 and May 21, the northbound lanes of I-180 will be closed at 9 p.m., weather permitting.
During that time, the northbound lanes will be detoured at the O Street intersection and directed to proceed west on O Street to US-77. From there, traffic will take US-77 north to I-80 east.
According to NDOT, single-lane closures may be in place on these evenings in the direction opposite the full closure.
At 6 a.m. the following morning, detours will be removed, and traffic on I-180 will resume as normal.
