I-66 Outside the Beltway Project
Lane Closures and Traffic Changes
Week of October 14
By the Virginia Department of Transportation
What's Happening
Crews will continue shifting travel lanes and setting up concrete barriers to create safe work zones along Interstate 66. Upcoming planned construction activities include:
Grading, excavating, and clearing trees and brush at the Route 28, Route 123 and Route 50 interchanges and other places where work zones are set up along the corridor
Begin excavation for retaining walls near Jermantown Road
Rubblizing the shoulder along eastbound I-66 in the vicinity of Route 28
Continued grading and drainage work at the future University Boulevard Park and Ride Lot
Begin grading and excavating for the new E.C. Lawrence Park Access Road
Continued relocation of underground and overhead utilities along I-66
The Transform 66 Outside the Beltway project will add express lanes stretching 22.5 miles from the Capital Beltway to Route 29 in Gainesville, rebuild major interchanges along the I-66 corridor, create thousands of new park and ride spaces, and expand trail options for cyclists and pedestrians.
