Description
TRENTON, NJ — The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) has announced overnight lane closures on I-195 and Route 29, impacting both directions this week, as crews work to update overhead signage in Mercer County. This work is part of the ongoing updates following the 2018 redesignation of I-95 to I-295.
I-195 Westbound:
Lane closures will occur from the Lakeside Boulevard overpass to the I-295 overpass in Hamilton. These are scheduled for tonight, Monday, April 15, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., and will repeat on Tuesday night during the same hours. The Route 206 southbound ramp to I-195 westbound will also be shifted. Traffic will be maintained with at least two lanes open, and all exits accessible.
I-195 Eastbound:
Starting Thursday, April 18, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., and again on Friday night, the right lane will be closed from before Exit 6/NJ Turnpike to before Exit 8/Ole York Road. Two lanes will remain open, and exits will be accessible.
Route 29 Southbound:
From 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 16 until 6 a.m. Wednesday, April 17, and continuing each night through Friday, April 19, the right lane will be closed from Lamberton Lane to I-295. At least two lanes will be maintained during these closures, with all exits remaining open.
The scheduled work involves the removal of outdated “old exit number” signs, a remnant from when a segment of I-95 was redesignated as I-295 in 2018. This change was part of a larger effort that included new interstate connections and exit renumbering across New Jersey and Pennsylvania, aimed at creating a continuous I-95 corridor.
Motorists are encouraged to stay informed of traffic updates and potential changes in work schedules through NJDOT's traffic information website, www.511nj.org.
Variable Message Signs will also be in place to alert drivers to the traffic pattern changes during these times. The NJDOT urges drivers to allow extra travel time and exercise caution when traveling through the work zones.
