#I39 ROAD CLOSURE HOW TO#
WisDOT has also released a video outlining how to use the Flex Lane. The speed limit for the Beltline remains 55 mph in all lanes, and drivers are encouraged to keep following traffic laws to ensure safe travels. TAPCO is accountable for 24/7 support of the Flex Lane to ensure it is kept operational, providing accelerated response times, thorough preventative maintenance and repairs when necessary. And TAPCO continues to work with WisDOT, delivering onsite and remote service maintenance while the Flex Lane is in operation. I-39 Illinois real time traffic, road conditions, Illinois constructions, current driving time, current average speed and Illinois accident reports. (WMBD) More than 100 vehicles were stalled on I-39 Thursday night into Friday morning as a substantial snowstorm ripped through Central Illinois. TAPCO supported WisDOT in the installation and ITS integration of the Flex Lane launch. The overhead sign returns to a green arrow when the Flex Lane opens again. If an obstruction is detected when the Flex Lane is open, the overhead signs display a yellow X, notifying drivers to exit the lane. The Flex Lane features Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras and detection systems to determine when obstructions are present, such as car accidents or emergency vehicles. WisDOT intends to collect data on other heavy traffic times on the Beltline to expand the use of the Flex Lane like the University of Wisconsin-Madison Badger football games. When open, the message sign displays a bright green arrow, and when the lane is closed, a red X appears. A dynamic message sign sits above the Flex Lane, indicating if its open for use. Outside of those times, the shoulder is closed for emergency use only.
Branded in Wisconsin as the Flex Lane, the median shoulder of the Beltline is a useable lane for several hours during weekday peak travel times. Wisconsin is now the 18th state to implement the Dynamic Part-Time Shoulder Use concept, an innovative solution that temporarily converts the shoulder of a freeway into an additional travel lane during periods of heavy traffic.
