The Town of Davidson and I-77 Mobility Partners want area residents to be aware that overnight on Thursday, July 8 at 9:00 p.m. – Friday, July 9 at 6:00 a.m. crews will be conducting work on the Griffith Street bridge at Exit 30 and Griffith Street. During this time, motorists will be detoured as follows:

Local traffic travelling west on Griffith Street of I-77 will take I-77 southbound to Exit 28 Catawba Avenue to I-77 northbound to access Exit 30 Griffith Street on the east side. Local traffic travelling from east of I-77 will take I-77 northbound to Exit 31 Langtree Road to I-77 southbound to access Exit 30 Griffith Street on the west side.

Drivers travelling southbound on I-77 will be routed onto the Exit 30 exit ramp and down the entrance ramp back onto I-77 southbound. Motorists heading north on I-77 overnight will be routed onto the Exit 30 exit ramp and down the entrance ramp back onto I-77 northbound.

Remember to always pay attention when approaching a work zone, obey the posted speed limit and work zone signs, and allow extra time to reach their destinations safely.
