Motorists may experience brief delays early Sunday morning, July 24, during slow-roll closures for utility work crossing eastbound Interstate 64 at mile marker 56 in Rockbridge County.
Slow-roll closures are scheduled to begin at approximately 6:45 a.m. and conclude by 8:15 a.m. These times are subject to change and are weather dependent.
Because the location of the work is very near the junction of I-64 and I-81, traffic will be controlled from three directions:
- The eastbound on-ramp from Route 11 onto I-64 at exit 55 will be controlled by flagging operations.
- Virginia State Police will perform slow roll traffic control for eastbound I-64 at mile marker 53.
- Virginia State Police will perform slow roll traffic control for northbound I-81 at mile marker 189 and southbound I-81 at mile marker 193.
The VDOT Staunton District serves Frederick, Shenandoah, Clarke, Warren, Page, Rockingham, Augusta, Highland, Rockbridge, Alleghany and Bath counties.
