A Waynesboro woman was struck and killed while walking on the entrance ramp from Route 250 leading to westbound Interstate 64 at Exit 99 Tuesday evening.

According to Virginia State Police, a 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck was taking the entrance ramp from Route 250 to I-64 when it encountered the female pedestrian crossing the travel lane. The Dodge was unable to avoid striking the pedestrian and pulled off to the side of the interstate a short distance later.

Tammy Frazier, 50, of Waynesboro, died at the scene. She was not dressed in any reflective clothing.

The adult male driver of the pickup truck was not injured in the crash.

The crash remains under investigation.
