VDOT News - Northern Virginia

FAIRFAX – The ramp from Route 29 (Lee Highway) North and South to I-66 East in Centreville will be closed throughout the weekend of July 9-12. The closure will begin Friday, July 9, at 10 a.m. and continue through 4 a.m. Monday, July 12, for paving operations. Northbound traffic will be directed to continue about one mile farther north to Route 28 North, then follow signs to I-66 East. Southbound traffic will be directed to continue farther south to the intersection with Stone Road, stay to the left and make a U-turn at the traffic signal on to Route 29 North, travel to Route 28 North, then exit to I-66 East.  

When the ramps from Route 29 North and South to I-66 East reopen Monday morning, July 12, the temporary detour of the ramp from southbound Route 29 to I-66 East will end. The ramp has been closed since mid-May to allow for construction to widen and realign the ramp as part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project. New I-66 bridges over Route 29 are being constructed that are wider, longer, and higher to accommodate future transportation improvements at the Route 29 Interchange. 

All work is weather dependent and will be rescheduled if inclement conditions occur.

Construction and lane closure updates are available at Transform66.org and on Twitter @VaDOTNOVA. To receive updates automatically by email, sign up here.
