I-80 (Interstate 80) Road Conditions

I-80 Road Conditions for December 1, 2025

Long-term construction projects continue along several stretches of I-80 in late 2025, notably around Sacramento in California, in southern Wyoming between Patrick Draw and Wamsutter, through central Nebraska near Lexington and Kearney, in Dallas County west of Des Moines, and across the Joliet / Will County corridor in Illinois. These projects involve ongoing work zones with lane shifts, intermittent lane closures, reduced speed limits and width restrictions. Real-time incidents and day-to-day ramp closures are only available from each state’s 511 or DOT traveler-information site linked below.

I-80 California Road Conditions

• Davis to West Sacramento – pavement rehabilitation and bridge work: Ongoing Caltrans pavement rehabilitation between Davis and West Sacramento continues into spring 2026. Work includes replacing worn pavement and upgrading bridges and barriers, with recurring lane closures, narrowed lanes and reduced speeds through the construction zone near the Yolo Causeway and the I-80 / Business 80 split.
• Sacramento region – multiple corridor improvements: A group of major projects (I-80 pavement rehabilitation, Yolo 80 corridor improvements, and related work near the Highway 50 junction) is producing frequent traffic shifts and temporary lane closures on I-80 in the Sacramento area. Drivers should expect active work zones and changing configurations when approaching or passing through Sacramento.

I-80 Nevada Road Conditions

• Sparks to USA Parkway – future widening project: NDOT and FHWA have completed environmental approvals for a widening project between Vista Boulevard and USA Parkway east of Sparks. Design is advancing, but detailed construction phasing and specific lane or ramp closures are not yet published in static sources; these will appear on Nevada’s 511/road-conditions systems as work begins.

I-80 Utah Road Conditions

• Kimball Junction to US-40 (Summit County) – repaving project: UDOT completed a 2025 repaving project between west of Kimball Junction and just east of US-40. During the 2025 season this work included overnight lane and ramp closures in that segment; future short-term closures in the area will be posted on UDOT Traffic as needed.
• Lake Point / SR-36 interchange area – lane additions: A project to add an eastbound auxiliary lane on I-80 between the SR-36 (Tooele / Lake Point) interchange and the I-80 / SR-201 junction, along with widening SR-36 northbound, runs through late 2025 and into 2026. Expect a recurring work zone with shifting lane closures near the SR-36 / I-80 ramps and along the eastbound mainline east of Lake Point.

I-80 Wyoming Road Conditions

• Patrick Draw to Wamsutter – eastbound I-80 mileposts 141–149: WYDOT lists an active long-term construction project on eastbound I-80 between milepost 141 and milepost 149 (between Patrick Draw and Wamsutter), running from March 23, 2025 through October 30, 2026. Work includes milling and paving, bridge rehabilitation, rest-area resurfacing, and associated traffic control. Travelers should expect construction congestion, slower speeds and possible delays through this segment.

I-80 Nebraska Road Conditions

• Lexington to Kearney – head-to-head traffic and width restriction: Nebraska’s November 19, 2025 Interstate & State Highway Construction and Detour Report lists long-term construction on I-80 between milepost 252 (about 16 miles east of Lexington) and Exit 267 for Kearney. Traffic is shifted to a head-to-head configuration with a 10-foot width limit, and the work is scheduled to continue until April 2026.
• Overton Link to milepost 249 – long-term lighting/electrical work: On I-80 west of Lexington, the same report notes long-term construction between the Overton Link and milepost 249 (roughly 10 miles west of Lexington) due to electrical or lighting work, with an intermittently closed lane.
• North Platte area – long-term construction between US-83 and Exit 179: Between the US-83 interchange and Exit 179 (North Platte), long-term road construction is in progress related to electrical or lighting systems, with intermittent lane closures reported.

I-80 Iowa Road Conditions

• Dallas County – Grand Prairie Parkway to 60th Street widening: A multi-year project is widening I-80 from four to six lanes between the Grand Prairie Parkway and 60th Street interchanges in Dallas County (west of Des Moines), with construction staged from 2023 through 2027. Work includes updated ramps at Grand Prairie Parkway, Jordan Creek Parkway and 60th Street, plus new bridges over the Union Pacific Railroad. Two lanes are generally maintained in each direction, but overnight lane closures and occasional ramp closures occur within this stretch.
• Jordan Creek Parkway (Exit 121) – recurring ramp impacts: As part of the Dallas County widening, the eastbound I-80 on-ramp from southbound Jordan Creek Parkway (Exit 121) has been subject to scheduled long-term closures for concrete pavement work and may see additional closures during later stages. Check Iowa 511 for whether that ramp is open or closed on this date.

I-80 Illinois Road Conditions

• Will County (Joliet corridor) – six-year reconstruction program: Illinois is in the midst of a six-year, roughly 16-mile reconstruction of I-80 through Joliet and Will County. The program includes rebuilding mainline I-80, replacing or rehabilitating more than 30 bridges, and modernizing multiple interchanges. Active work zones are concentrated between the Grundy County line and US-30, with lane shifts, reduced shoulders and periodic lane and ramp closures as individual bridge and interchange stages progress.

I-80 Indiana Road Conditions

• Indiana Toll Road (I-80 / I-90) – ongoing maintenance: I-80 in Indiana follows the Indiana Toll Road. Routine pavement, bridge and interchange work is handled through shorter-term contracts with changing locations. No single long-term I-80 mainline project with a clearly published 2025–2026 construction window is documented in static summaries; active lane and ramp restrictions are posted via Indiana’s 511 and Toll Road traveler tools.

I-80 Ohio Road Conditions

• Ohio Turnpike corridor – localized construction zones: I-80 in Ohio is primarily the Ohio Turnpike. ODOT and the Turnpike Commission schedule bridge repairs, resurfacing and interchange work in segments, with specific lane and ramp closures changing frequently. Static summaries do not list a single multi-year I-80 project spanning late 2025; current work zones, including any active ramp closures near major interchanges such as I-480, I-90 or I-76, must be obtained from Ohio’s real-time systems.

I-80 Pennsylvania Road Conditions

• Centre County – I-80 / I-99 high-speed interchange project: PennDOT is constructing a new high-speed interchange between I-80 and I-99 near Bellefonte / Route 26. While much of the current work is on connecting roadways (such as Route 26), various stages can affect traffic patterns on I-80 near the I-99 junction, including lane shifts and short-term ramp restrictions as structures and approaches are built.
• Monroe County – planned reconstruction between Exits 303–307: Design continues for a multi-section reconstruction of I-80 between Exits 303 and 307 in Monroe County. As of late 2025, major mainline reconstruction and associated long-term closures on that stretch are still in the design / pre-construction phase; any current day-to-day lane or ramp closures along I-80 in Pennsylvania must be confirmed via 511PA.

I-80 New Jersey Road Conditions

• Wharton area (Morris County) – prior sinkhole repair zone: Early in 2025, multiple sinkholes near Exit 34 in Wharton led to extended closures and detours on I-80 eastbound and temporary shutdowns westbound while crews stabilized the roadway and filled underground voids. Those emergency repairs prompted a broader program of drilling and grouting beneath the eastbound lanes. Any continuing lane or ramp restrictions at or near Exit 34 and adjacent interchanges now appear only in New Jersey’s real-time traffic systems.
