I-10 Traffic Shift Near Highway 29 Interchange Expected This Week
December 9, 2024
A previously planned traffic shift for I-10 was delayed last week by weather, but the Florida Department of Transportation says the change is now expected to take place this week.
This week, I-10 eastbound travel lanes will be shifted toward the median area of the roadway, from mile markers 8 to 10, near the Highway 29 interchange (Exit 10). The traffic shift will be a multiyear effort and allows crews to build a new alignment for I-10 at Highway 29.
The Florida Department of Transportation said the speed limit is reduced to 50 mph through the work zone, and nighttime temporary single-lane closures may occur on I-10 between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday through Thursday. At least one travel lane will remain open at all times.
This work is part of a $236 million construction project designed to improve safety and capacity for the 62,000 drivers who travel the I-10 at Highway 29 interchange daily. The project is anticipated for completion in 2030.
All activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.

And before you know it, the US 29 interchange will be full of loopty-loops, where nobody will have a clue which loopty-loop they need to use. I think they call them cloverleafs, the big cities have them, but imagine one cloverleaf that takes you to another cloverleaf that takes you on top of the cloverleaf you just got off of, to then take you around five other cloverleafs, and then after about 15 minutes of loopy-looping US 29 you FINALLY get situated to go north towards century or south towards downtown.
At the rate they are working, I think 2030 is way to optimistic. I would say probably 2041.
