The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) reports that the I-80 eastbound ramp from Howard Boulevard is closed and detoured, for approximately 12 days, as the I-80 Bridges over Howard Boulevard bridge replacement project advances in Mount Arlington, Morris County.
Through September 20, the Howard Boulevard ramp to I-80 eastbound is scheduled to be closed for drainage improvements, as well as curb and concrete repairs. If work is completed earlier, the ramp will reopen sooner. The following detour will be in place:
Howard Boulevard northbound ramp to I-80 eastbound Detour:
- Motorists on Howard Boulevard northbound wishing to take the ramp to I-80 eastbound will be directed to continue on Howard Boulevard northbound and turn left to take the ramp to I-80 westbound.
- Take Exit 27A to Route 206 southbound/Somerville.
- Stay right to take the ramp to I-80 eastbound.
The $65.4 million project will replace the existing bridges carrying I-80 eastbound and I-80 westbound over Howard Boulevard/CR 516, which are in poor condition. The project is expected to be completed in summer 2027.
The precise timing of the work is subject to change due to weather or other factors.
