Traffic will be detoured via Fitzwater Drive, Kettle Run Road and Vint Hill Road, VDOT said.

The work is part of Prince William County’s $69.9 million Route 28 widening project. Phase One, which involves relocating Vint Hill Road to Route 28’s intersection with Infantry Lane and widening Route 28 to six lanes between Linton Hall Road and the relocated Vint Hill Road, is scheduled for completion in July 2016.
