Traffic Alert: All Lanes North on Interstate 95 to Close Briefly for Work

Motorists on Interstate 95 late Wednesday will possibly find traffic stopped in the area just north of Dumfries Road, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation.

Crews will begin closing lanes at 9 p.m., with plans to close all lanes heading north sometime between midnight late Wednesday and 5 a.m. Thursday.

The closure will last up to 15 minutes and may be repeated a second time in order to install an overhead sign.

Message signs will be posted in advance of the work, according to a VDOT release.

The work is part of a should widening project that is expected to be completed next summer. Click here for more information on the I-95 Shoulder Widening Project.
