Boca Raton-area commuters, take note: The new highway interchange linking Glades Road to Interstate 95 opens in its initial phase at 6 a.m. Monday. The diverging-diamond-style interchange will debut with three open lanes in each (east/west) direction.

For the first two weeks, law enforcement officers will be on location to monitor the traffic flow daily from 11 p.m. to 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., says the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT).

Bicyclists can expect two 7-foot bike lanes open in each direction Monday as well. But pedestrian traffic will be temporarily reworked. With the northern sidewalk closed, pedestrians will have to use the southern sidewalk (Airport Road at Renaissance Way), the FDOT says.

Crossing over I-95, the diverging-diamond interchange will allow motorists to enter the highway or continue straight ahead without crossing in front of oncoming traffic. Transportation officials say the innovative system is safer and reduces the possibility of accidents.

Once additional construction is completed, authorities will open a fourth lane in each direction.
