DURHAM, N.C. — The North Carolina Department of Transportation will temporarily close the Guess Road entrance ramp (Exit 175) on northbound Interstate 85 Wednesday at 10 p.m., if weather permits.

Also during that time, one lane of northbound I-85 will intermittently be closed, with one lane open at all times.
