WILLIAMSBURG — Residents soon will start seeing more road work in several parts of the city.

Williamsburg’s annual paving program starts Wednesday, according to the city.

Crews will mill and pave streets and street segments, meaning motorists should expect changing traffic patterns, reduced speeds in work areas and lane closures.

“No parking” signs will be posted in the affected areas the day before work begins, the city said.

Road work will be complete by June 30. The projects will collectively cost $617,818.

Affected roads include:

  • Brookwood Drive, Exmore Court and Brockton Court (Holly Hills Carriage Homes)          
  • Cole Lane
  • Waltz Farm Drive
  • Second Street w/Parkway Drive
  • Capitol Landing Green Court
  • Richmond Hill Court
  • New Hope Road
  • Richmond Road (Brook Street to New Hope Road)
  • Lafayette Street (Bacon Street to Richmond Road)
  • South Henry Street
  • South England Street
  • Waller Mill Water Treatment Plant
  • Cedar Grove Cemetery
  • Community Building
  • Transportation Center
  • Post Office drop box/parking lot

Visit the city’s website for a full list of streets, street segments and the estimated work dates. The website will be updated as contractors procide the city with more information.

Road work is subject to change depending on weather conditions.
