Road Construction for next two years in south Jacksonville

[DrDolphin]

Florida DOT has put in place closures on I-95 south at 295 in south Jacksonville - they are completely rebuilding the intersection of these two interstates and may cause delays to anyone driving down 95 to WDW.

Also - Watch your speed in the reduce speed zones -- Florida doubles fines if any workers are present in the construction zone.

Oh dear.Does this mean the 295 is closed and we have to go through Jacksonville? If so do you know how long it will be closed?Hopefully open be Dec.We like going on 295.BTW We will be there this coming weekend.Staying at the Adams Mark somewhere downtown(I think) on the water/lake

They will have portions of the interchange closed for the next two years (through Spring 2006), thus they will have portions of closed in December when you come through town. The Adams Mark is on the north bank of the river downtown. If you take I-295 You have to backtrack up 95 from downtown, get on 295 drive more than 25 extra miles -- if you are staying at the Adams mark downtown you are more than half way through town? Why waste the extra time to backtrack up to 295? Just head south on 95.
