According to the Florida Department of Transportation, the traffic pattern change is on I-395 from just east of Biscayne Boulevard to just west of Northeast First Avenue.
he eastbound outside travel lane now merges with the middle lane near First Avenue, leaving two eastbound lanes through the area.
