From YouTube: I-77 construction moves south into Charlotte
Description
I-77 Mobility Partners expects construction on the 26-mile Express Lanes to move into the uptown Charlotte area by the end of 2016. Here's what drivers can expect on the roadway.
A
B
Are
different
aspects
of
constructions
from
exit
23,
which
is
Gilead
Road
in
Huntersville,
all
the
way
up
to
exit
36,
which
is
Plaza
Drive
in
Mooresville,
and
we
are
slowly
starting
to
start
construction
in
the
Charlotte
area
as
well.
So
by
the
end
of
the
year,
you'll
predominantly
see
construction
along
most
of
the
26
mile
project
from
Charlotte
to
Mooresville.
A
Jeanne
Lear
with
I-77
mobility
partners,
says
regular
lanes
of
traffic
will
only
be
closed
at
night,
but
leer
did
say,
drivers
can
expect
to
see
lane
shifts
and
will
no
longer
be
able
to
use
the
high-occupancy
vehicle
Lane
on
southbound
I-70
for
I
80
5
to
its
end,
near
Oakland,
bridge
just
north
of
Uptown.
The.
B
Express
lanes
that
are
out
there
right
now
from
from
Huntersville
all
the
way
down
into
the
Charlotte
area
become
one
of
the
lanes
of
the
I
77
Express
Lanes
project,
and
in
order
to
safely
do
the
construction
in
that
area.
In
your
Uptown
Charlotte,
we
will
be
disabling
that
HOV
Lane
for
the
purpose
of
construction
and
for
the
purpose,
so
emergency
responders
can
still
get
through
the
area
to
respond
to
any
incidents
if
needed.
When.
