RIDOT to temporarily close I-95 ramp in Warwick

WARWICK, R.I. (WLNE) — The Rhode Island Department of Transportation said that it will close the on-ramp from Route 113 East to Interstate 95 North in Warwick as part of an ongoing bridge replacement project.

The closure will begin on Friday night and will continue through late fall 2025.

RIDOT said that during the closure motorists on Route 113 East will need to use the ramp to I-95 South and travel to the Route 117 interchange to reverse direction back to I-95 North.

Any driver who misses the I-95 South ramp should stay on Route 113 as it becomes Main Avenue, then turn left onto Route 1 North and use the Airport Connector to I-95 North.

The I-95 North on-ramp from Route 113 West will not be affected and remain open.

RIDOT added that lanes will be narrowed on I-95 North and South at the bridges.

In mid-May, RIDOT will also shift both directions of Route 113 traffic onto the eastbound side of the bridges while it begins demolition and reconstruction of the other side.

In mid-summer, traffic will then shift onto the new bridge to demolish the other side of the old bridge.

The construction will demolish and rebuild the bridges carrying Route 113 over I-95 and Interstate 295.
