Relocating I-195 in Providence
The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) is in the middle of a series of construction projects that will move the interchange of I-95/I-195 in Providence south. Currently some ramps in the interchange enter roadways from the left. Once the projects are complete and the new roads, bridges and ramps are open, all ramps in the interchange will enter roadways from the right, in conformance with modern design standards.

The new system manages traffic on Rhode Island's major interstates (I-95, I-195, and I-295) as well as many major local routes throughout the state (Route 146, Route 4, Route 6, and Route 10.)
