Drivers on Interstate 64 should expect a series of nightly lane closures — and possibly some delays — through the week.
As a result of VDOT’s I-64 widening project certain ramps and lanes will experience closures from Dec. 9-13
Ramp closures:
- I-64 east and west to Route 60/Busch Gardens (exit 243A), as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- I-64 east and west to Route 143 (exit 243B), as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- Route 60 on-ramp to I-64 east and west, as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- I-64 east and west to Route 199 west (exit 242A), as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- I-64 east and west to Route 199 east (exit 242B), as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Route 199 east and west on-ramps to I-64 east and west, as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m - I-64 east and west to Yorktown Road/Jefferson Avenue (exit 247), as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- Jefferson Avenue (Route 143) on-ramps to I-64 east and west, as early as 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- Yorktown Road (Route 238) on-ramp to I-64 east, as early as 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Full ramp closures on I-64 will have signs for detours in place.
The long-term full ramp closure on Route 143 Merrimac Trail north to I-64 west will continue. Traffic will be detoured to the Route 143 south on-ramp to I-64 west.
During the night on Dec. 9 to 13, traffic on I-64 eastbound between one mile of Route 199 Lightfoot Exit 234 and the Queens Creek Bridges at mile marker 239 will be shifted to the outside lane and shoulder. This will allow for clearing the median and the construction of the new travel lane, should weather permit.
Lane Closures:
- Berkley Bridge, dual-lane closures I-264 east, Dec. 10-11 from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.
- James River Bridge, single-lane closures south and north Dec. 10-11 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., single-lane closure south Dec. 12 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
