Crews from the Virginia Department of Transportation will be at work during an overnight closure of the northbound right lane on the James River Bridge from 2 to 10 a.m. Sunday.

The work will also require test lifts of the bridge, which will result in intermittent traffic stops of up to 30 minutes each throughout the night in both the south- and northbound directions. The work is routine maintenance.

Real-time traffic information from VDOT can be found on their website here. Commuters can also tune into Highway Advisory Radio at 1680 AM or call 511 or 361-3016.
