Interstate 95 Interchange at Ellis Road

FINANCIAL PROJECT ID: 426905-3

Bridge Work to Begin on the New Interchange

NOVEMBER 2018

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will begin bridge construction activities this month for the Interstate 95 (I-95) interchange at Ellis Road. The new interchange is part of area enhancements that will provide a more direct future route to the Orlando Melbourne International Airport from I-95. This interchange is also expected to help alleviate congestion at the U.S. 192 and Eau Gallie Boulevard interchanges.

The project team is currently preparing the site for the heavy equipment that will be used during construction. They will also begin pile driving as part of the bridge work needed on this interchange.

Bridge work at the I-95 and Ellis Road Interchange will require 130 permanent piles to be installed over the course of approximately two to three months. Pile driving is typically done in 15-minute intervals. Residents and businesses may experience additional noise and vibration during these activities.

Construction activities will occur between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday.

Please note construction schedules may change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
