Expect 'Major' Delays On Northbound Interstate 275
One lane is closed for emergency repairs.
The drive home to Land O' Lakes could take a lot longer than expected tonight if Interstate 275 is your normal route home. The Florida Department of Transportation is anticipating "major" delays today, Feb. 22.
According to a FDOT media release, the right northbound lane approaching Interstate 75 is closed for emergency asphalt repairs.
"Due to the extent of needed repairs, the lane is expected to remain closed
well into the evening," the media release said. "Traffic is 'stop and go' for over two miles and will get worse as we get into the afternoon rush hour commute. Drivers can expect major delays and may want to consider alternate routes such as I-75."
