TAMPA, Fla. — The eastbound 34th Street slip ramp from the local lanes of the Selmon Expressway to the Reversible Express Lanes will be closed until further notice.
The reason? A crash: Florida Highway Patrol says a driver suffered a diabetic episode, drove their car into the inside shoulder and hit several traffic control arms.
Drivers can use the Twiggs Street & Meridian Avenue entrance to the REL as an alternative.
The ramp is expected to be closed for around six weeks because of the gates needing to be replaced.
