by | Mar 23, 2021 | Traffic

From VDOT:

With the spring season here, drivers should anticipate delays on Interstate 95 northbound and southbound in the Fredericksburg area with Improve 95 program construction in full bloom.

Multiple work zones are scheduled on I-95 this week.

I-95 northbound and southbound traffic will be stopped up to 30 minutes between midnight and 3 a.m. at the site of the future Truslow Road overpass under construction at mile marker 134 as part of the I-95 Express Lanes Fredericksburg Extension project.

Two other projects as part of the Improve 95 program will also have lane closures including the I-95 Southbound Rappahannock River Crossing and I-95 Northbound Rappahannock River Crossing.

Guardrail repair will also be performed this week at various locations during daytime off-peak travel times to minimize delays for drivers.

Weather permitting, the following lane closures are set through early Saturday, March 27:
