Drivers on I-85 will need to exit to the outer loop, continuing to the Mallard Creek Road Exit, where they can get back on the inner loop. Two travel lanes will be open on I-485, with work wrapping up by 6 a.m. Wednesday.

The closure is part of a resurfacing contract on I-485 between I-85 and Rocky River Road.
