Beginning at 7 a.m. Tuesday, southbound US-75 lanes between 41st Street and 61st Street will shift as part of an ongoing interchange improvement project.

The southbound US-75 ramp to eastbound I-44 will close by Wednesday for roughly two years. Drivers can detour using westbound I-244 to reach eastbound I-44.

The southbound US-75 on-ramp from 41st Street will also be closed.
