Shift to Occur as Soon as Morning of June 1,
Will Affect Ramps at Three Interchanges
Eastbound Interstate 4 (I-4) travel lanes between John Young Parkway and downtown Orlando is shifting to a temporary configuration as soon as the morning of June 1.
This nearly 2-mile shift also creates a temporary eastbound I-4 ramp system separated from and adjacent to the eastbound I-4 mainline through the Orange Blossom Trail (US 17-92/441) and Kaley Avenue interchanges.
Eastbound I-4 motorists exiting to Orange Blossom Trail and Kaley Avenue will have to exit just beyond John Young Parkway interchange.
Eastbound I-4 motorists seeking to travel beyond Kaley Avenue will temporarily drive on the future westbound I-4 express lanes while crews safely demolish the old eastbound I-4 mainline and build the new interstate.
The eastbound I-4 entrance ramp from northbound Orange Blossom Trail and the eastbound I-4 exit ramp to Kaley Avenue close at 10 p.m. May 31 and reopen by 5 a.m. June 3. The eastbound I-4 on-ramp from Kaley Avenue closes permanently at 5 a.m. June 1. The eastbound I-4 on-ramp from John Young Parkway closes from 10 p.m. May 31 through 5 a.m. June 1. Multiple lanes closures on eastbound I-4 also are necessary to assist with the construction activity.
As part of the traffic movement, the eastbound I-4 on-ramp from Kaley Avenue is closing permanently. However, the eastbound I-4 on-ramp from Michigan Street will reopen and service both Kaley Avenue and Michigan Street interchanges.

Modifications or extensions to these schedules may become necessary due to weather delays or other unforeseen conditions. Motorists are advised to maintain a safe speed when driving through the work zone.
