Route 28 (Nokesville Road) between Bristow Village Boulevard and Battalion Square will be closed in both directions Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights so that crews can install a storm sewer line, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT).

Closure times:

• 10 p.m. Friday, June 12 to 5 a.m. Saturday, June 13
• 10 p.m. Saturday, June 13 to 5 a.m. Sunday, June 14
• 10 p.m. Sunday, June 14 to 4 a.m. Monday, June 15

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

The storm sewer line installation 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.

Construction of Phase Two, which involves widening Route 28 to four lanes from the relocated Vint Hill Road to Fitzwater Drive in Nokesville, is scheduled to begin next March and has an estimated completion date of December 2017.
