Traffic to slow, shift for I-77 N. at Surry-Yadkin line

JONESVILLE — Travelers driving north on Interstate 77 crossing from Yadkin County into Surry County will be experiencing slower speed limits and a traffic lane shift for the next several months. Last week a N.C. Department of Transportation contractor shifted traffic to a temporary pattern on the highway there. Using a series of slow-rolling closures beginning last Monday night, crews from Smith-Rowe LLC shifted I-77 North traffic to the I-77 South bridge overnight Thursday to replace the 61-year-old bridge that carries motorists over the Yadkin River and N.C. 268. Contract crews have been working since March constructing the temporary pattern on the I-77 South bridge, which is large enough to accommodate both directions of travel until the replacement bridge is finished. The Department of Transportation replaced the I-77 South bridge in this area in 2007. While no detours will be necessary to shift traffic, the speed limit on I-77 will drop to 55 mph until traffic is shifted to the replacement bridge. The $16.8 million contract calls for all construction to be finished by late 2028. It does not allow narrowing or closing lanes during daytime hours on I-77 or during morning rush hour on N.C. 268. It was not
