under construction

Several ramps are closing permanently in April and May as part of ongoing construction for the Interstate 26 Connector project in Asheville, North Carolina. This construction will impact Asheville Rides Transit (ART) bus services, including route detours and bus stop closures. Specific ramps closing include the Riverside Drive entrance ramp to I-240/I-26, the I-240/I-26 off-ramp to Hill Street, and the Patton Avenue eastbound ramp to the Patton Avenue eastbound frontage road (Westgate Bridge). Bus stop 154 at Hill Street and Riverside Drive will be closed, with passengers advised to use bus stop 311 at Atkison Street and Hill Street instead.
