The HOV lanes on Interstate 95/395 from Va. 234 in Dumfries to Washington, D.C., will close at 11 p.m. Friday. The lanes will remain closed until 10 a.m., Saturday, when crews will reopen the lanes in the southbound direction, from the Springfield Interchange to Dumfries.

A spokeswoman from the Virginia’s Department of Transportation’s Megaprojects office said the northern section of the lanes will remain closed until 10 a.m., Sunday, when the entire system will reopen to carry traffic in the northbound direction.

Additionally, one left lane of I-395 will be shut down in the southbound direction between Seminary Road and I-495 from 11 p.m. Friday to 9 a.m., Saturday and then again from 9 p.m. on Saturday to 10 a.m. on Sunday.

Crews working on the 95 Express Lanes Project will be conducting work on sign structures, drainage, and foundation work, according to VDOT. Drivers are told to expect longer than normal travel times and delays this weekend along the I-95/395 corridor.

VDOT states signage is posted along the highway to let drivers and travelers know about the lane closures and ongoing work.
