Drivers in Binghamton and the town of Dickinson are being warned of changes planned on Interstates 81 and 86, as well as Route 17 in connection with a major construction project.

According to the New York State Department of Transportation, the overnight exit closures and traffic slowdowns are for work on the $16 million project to replace the Front Street bridge over I-81. They'll take place from approximately 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.

On Wednesday, Interstate 81 will be reduced to a single southbound lane between Exits 6 and 5. The left northbound lane will be closed from Exit 4 to Exit 6. Southbound motorists should be prepared for occasional "rolling slowdowns" lasting about five minutes.

On Thursday and Friday, I-81 will be reduced to a single northbound lane between Exit 4 and the junction of Interstate 88. Exit 5 will be closed and traffic will be directed to a detour using Exit 6. The I-86 eastbound ramp to I-81 northbound (Exit 72A) also will be reduced to a single lane. Rolling slowdowns lasting 15 to 25 minutes will take place in the area of I-86 eastbound at Exit 70 and continue through the I-81 merge and along I-81 northbound to the junction of I-88.

Additional lane closures and traffic slowdowns are scheduled for next week.

Drivers should expect traffic delays. The planned work is weather-dependent.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
