2 Right Lanes Closed 1/2 Mile

Two right lanes close in half a mile; merge left well before reaching the closure.

Both of the right-hand travel lanes will be closed in half a mile, typically for a work zone or incident. Drivers in those lanes should signal and merge to the left as soon as a safe gap allows rather than waiting until the taper, and through traffic should leave room for merging vehicles.
