I-295 Greater Portland Area Interstate Project

This is a graphic showing the project area at night

Maine Department of Transportation has a significant amount of work planned for Interstate 295 from South Portland to Freeport — improvements that are vital to keeping Maine’s busiest highway safe and efficient. Work is expected to continue through October. The improvements on I-295 in greater Portland represent an investment in infrastructure of nearly $24 million, and overall, our contractors tell us this means employment for 270 people.

Because we do expect traffic delays, especially during the evening commute, please consider carpooling, changing work schedules, taking transit, and using MaineDOT’s web cams to check on traffic congestion. Through traffic should use the Maine Turnpike. Drivers should use caution and observe construction signs.

Maps, webcams, detour routes and details of all projects are available on this website.
