Two Ramps at I-495/Route 123 Interchange to Close Overnights

Drivers will be detoured by exiting on to northbound Route 123 instead, turning right on Old Meadow Road, left on Colshire Meadow Drive, left on Colshire Drive, then left on to southbound Route 123.
 
Ramp from Southbound Route 123 to Northbound I-495 - 9:30 p.m. to 5 a.m.
