I-275 Southbound Ramp To Eastbound I-4 Closing Monday Night In Tampa

TAMPA, Fla. – Beginning at 11 p.m. Monday, March 27, through 5 a.m. Tuesday, March 28, the southbound I-275 ramp (Exit 45B) to eastbound I-4 is closing temporarily for crews to perform construction activities as part of the I-275 Capacity Improvements project.

The $85.3 million project is adding one lane in each direction to I-275 from north of I-4 to north of Hillsborough Avenue (US-92) using the existing right-of-way.

This project is expected to finish in 2026.

Motorists will have to detour around the work zone by continuing south on I-275, exiting the interstate at Jefferson Street (Exit 45A), keeping left at the fork, turning left onto Scott Street, and re-entering the interstate using the eastbound I-4 entrance ramp.

Advanced warning signs and electronic message boards will assist motorists traveling through the area.
