STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. — Drivers headed south on Interstate 95 this upcoming Wednesday and Thursday nights face temporary closures near mile post 148 at Quantico.
A crane will be moved across the highway at the Telegraph Road overpass in Stafford County on both nights. Drivers should expect total but temporary closures of that portion of the interstate, stated the Virginia Department of Transportation’s Megaprojects office.
The work is part of the nearly $1 billion I-95 Express Lanes Project to extend high occupancy vehicle / toll lanes from Dumfries to Va. 610 Stafford, and to convert existing HOV lanes to multi-use carpool / toll lanes between Dumfries and the Capital Beltway.
The project is expected to be completed in 2014, and it will compliment Express Lanes added between Springfield and Dulles Toll Road on I-495 in Virginia.
