Here’s what to expect this week:

Major FDOT Highway Projects

Interstate 95

The big one is still Boynton Beach Boulevard. FDOT’s $64 million interchange rebuild runs through early 2029, and this week brings another round of overnight lane and ramp closures.

I-95 at Boynton Beach Boulevard Interchange ($64 million, early 2029)

  • One I-95 lane may close in each direction starting at 8 p.m., with up to three lanes closed each way from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday. A fourth lane may close overnight as needed.
  • The northbound and southbound outside deceleration lanes and shoulders approaching the Boynton Beach Boulevard exits are closed through late 2026.
  • Any one of the four I-95 ramps at Boynton Beach Boulevard may close 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday — only one at a time. Northbound exit detours via Woolbright Road to U.S. 1; southbound exit detours via Gateway Boulevard to U.S. 1. Entrance ramp detours send drivers to U.S. 1 or Congress Avenue, then to Gateway (northbound) or Woolbright (southbound).
  • Additional ramp lanes may close nightly, 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday.
  • Eastbound Boynton Beach Boulevard is down to two through lanes from NW 8th Street to east of W. Industrial Avenue through late 2026. The northbound outside turn lane on NW 8th Street at Boynton Beach Boulevard is also closed.

  • The westbound turn lane to the southbound I-95 entrance ramp may close 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., Sunday night through Friday. Detour: U-turn at W. Industrial Avenue.
  • The driveway and front parking at 650 Boynton Beach Boulevard may close around the clock through fall 2026. Use NW 8th or NW 7th Street to NW 1st Avenue for the back lot.
