PARSIPPANY, NJ — Roadwork will keep an exit ramp in Parsippany closed for about a month — but that'll occur during overnight hours, according to the New Jersey Department of Transportation.

The I-80 westbound Exit 43A ramp to I-287 southbound will be closed and detoured this week for concrete deck repairs. Starting at 10 p.m. Tuesday, contractor Mount Construction Co., Inc. is scheduled to close and detour the exit.

Work will last approximately four weeks and take place from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Thursday, according to transportation officials.
