APOLLO BEACH, Fla. – Beginning early morning, Wednesday, December 20, a new entrance ramp will open to motorists from eastbound Big Bend Road to northbound I-75, weather permitting.
Motorists should use extra caution while traveling through the area as eastbound Big Bend Road traffic will have to enter the interstate from the left side of the roadway.
Once open, the existing entrance ramp will permanently close to traffic.
The $81.7 million project is reconstructing the I-75 interchange at Big Bend Road (CR 672), widening Big Bend Road between Covington Garden Drive and Simmons Loop, and rebuilding the bridges over Old Big Bend Road and Big Bend Road. This project is expected to finish before the summer of 2025.
