Episode Details

I-75 in Ocala just got a major upgrade — the SW 66th Street bridge is fully shut down for reconstruction as part of Florida’s “Moving I-75 Forward” plan. The bridge is being raised from 15’8” to 21’3” and extra lanes are being added to I-75 in both directions to boost safety and traffic flow. This comes after repeated truck collisions — including a major February incident — that forced closures. Drivers must now use the SW 43rd Street Road bridge as a detour, and expect longer commutes. Meanwhile, SW 38th Ave at SW 66th St is closed for two weeks, with locals rerouted to SW 81st St and SW 49th Ave Rd. All part of Florida DOT’s mission to make Marion County’s I-75 safer and smoother for everyone.
