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 May 26 to June 1.

VDOT will lift most lane closures for holiday travel from noon Friday, May 24 until noon Tuesday, May 27.

Ramps

• I-64: Full ramp closures on I-64 exit 258 to J. Clyde Morris, alternating exit 258A and exit 258B, May 28-30, from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m.

A consecutive, long-term full ramp closure on Route 143 Merrimac Trail north to I-64 west continues. Traffic will follow detour signage in place directing motorists to the Route 143 south on-ramp to I-64 west during the closure.
