Phase 2: Repairs to westbound I-80 bridges over 84th Street and the Big Papio Creek will reduce westbound and eastbound from four to three lanes, with traffic placed head-to- head in the eastbound lanes for a total of 50 days. The 84th Street on-loop and on-ramp to eastbound and the on-loop to westbound will be closed. The 72nd Street on-ramp to westbound I-80 will be closed. Phase 3: Westbound traffic will shift back onto the westbound lanes and westbound on-loops and on-ramps will open. Three lanes of eastbound traffic will be maintained on the outside lanes to accommodate the repairs to the inside lanes of the eastbound I-80 bridge over 84th Street and the Big Papio Creek. The 84th Street on-loop and on-ramp to eastbound will remain closed during phases 3 and 4 for a total of 65 days. Phase 4: Three lanes of eastbound traffic will be shifted to the inside lanes to accommodate repairs to the outside lanes of the eastbound I-80 bridge over 84th Street and the Big Papio Creek.
