The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) announced that the last major segment of the Iway: I-195 West to I-95 North is scheduled to open in time for the morning commute on Tuesday, October 20. All changes are weather permitting.

Please see attached maps.  With next week’s opening of I-195 West to I-95 North, the Department will also open the ramp from I-195 West to Point Street, and the ramp from I-95 North to Point Street. These ramps will carry traffic going to the Jewelry District, the Davol Square area, the hospitals complex, and the west side of Providence.  Additionally, once the I-195 West to I-95 North movement is open, motorists traveling on Gano Street and taking the I-195 West on-ramp will have access to both I-95 North and I-95 South.

The Wickenden Street and Dyer Street on-ramps to I-195 West will be closed. Motorists who used to travel this area will need to take alternate routes to access I-95 North and I-95 South as shown in the attached map for outbound traffic.
