A New Design is Coming for I-95 Glades Road Interchange

Following the announcement that there will be on-going construction on the Florida Turnpike, I-95 from Glades Road to Linton Boulevard will also be under construction.

On Monday, the Florida Department of Transportation announced their I-95 Glades Road interchange project.

The design consists of a brand new diverging diamond interchange, allowing for a safer and more money-savvy option.

According to WPTV, the FDOT states the divergent diamond interchange will present drivers with less time at traffic lights and a smoother transition.

The design seeks to get rid of on and off looks to I-95 and replace them with a cross over into westbound and eastbound sides of the bridge. This will give drivers the option to get on 95 north or south or continue onto Glades Road.

The construction is set to begin in January of 2020 and will not begin till the Palmetto Park bridge is first completed.
