NH Department of Transportation contractor performing work on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Here are the details.

CONCORD, NH – The New Hampshire Department of Transportation is having a contractor install new signage on the open road tolling lanes of I-95 in Hampton on June 20, June 21, and June 22, 2016, requiring those lanes to be closed temporarily, according to a press statement.

The southbound lane will be closed at 8 p.m. tonight (Monday, June 20) until 5 a.m. on Tuesday; the northbound lane will be closed from 8 p.m. on Tuesday through 5 a.m. on Wednesday, June 22.

“The closure is necessary in order to install new E-ZPass signs at the South Road and Route 27 overpass bridges,” according to Public Information Officer Bill Boynton of the NHDOT. “All motorists will be guided via signs and traffic cones to the non-ORT portion of the Hampton Toll Plaza where they will proceed through either dedicated E-ZPass lane or cash lanes.”
