The ramp, which carries traffic from Maple Road to northbound I-355, closed at 10 p.m. Friday and was expected to reopen at 5 a.m. Monday, according to a statement from the Illinois Tollway. A posted detour will redirect traffic to the 159th Street interchange via Cedar Road, 167th Street and Gougar Road.

Traffic shifts will also be in place on the ramp from southbound I-355 to Maple until 3 p.m. Monday, tollway officials said.
