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 Aug. 18-24.

While the lane closure lift is in effect for most areas, motorists may encounter semi-permanent work zones that remain in place during that time. A full listing of those lane closures can be found on VDOT’s website.

  • George P. Coleman Bridge, Route 17: Alternating single-lane closures, on Aug. 19-21, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

  • With assistance from Virginia State Police, there will also be a series of temporary stoppages on I-64 west, lasting no longer than 20 minutes each, for bridge work at the Lakeshead Drive overpass on Aug. 20-21, between midnight and 5 a.m.
  • Daytime lane closures under flagger control on Lakeshead Drive at I-64 overpass on Aug. 19-23, from 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Motorist and emergency vehicle access will be maintained at all times.
