Drivers on U.S. 1 will feel a pinch this week when lanes are closed for construction on the Triangle Expressway.

Only one lane will be open in each direction on U.S. 1 between N.C. 55 and New Hill Holleman Road, south of Cary, Tuesday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., the N.C. Turnpike Authority said.

Road crews will be constucting temporary concrete barriers here, at the site of a future interchange for the Western Wake Expressway section of TriEx.
