I-95 South Closed This Weekend At Night

12 July 2013 No Comment

Construction crews will close a portion of Interstate 95 to lay new steel as part of the 95 Express Lanes Project.

Steel beams will be lifted in place for a new flyover ramp that will carry traffic from the future 95 Express Lanes in the median of the highway to the southbound side of I-95.

Drivers headed south can expect highway closures starting 9:30 p.m. Friday, from Va. 234 (Dumfries Road) to Joplin Road. Closures will continue Saturday night with lanes closing at 9:30 p.m., and reopen 9 a.m., Sunday morning.

“All I-95 southbound traffic will be directed off at Exit 152A, Dumfries Road (Route 234) east to U.S. Route 1 south to Joplin Road, (USMC Quantico), Route 619 and back to I-95 south,” states the Virginia Department of Transportation in a press release.

VDOT officials said a similar detour will also be in place the weekend of July 19 as crews work to lift more steel in the area of Telegraph Road and Quantico.
