Drivers in Stafford County should plan for a detour on Rock Hill Church Road next week as the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) prepares for a major bridge project.
A portion of Route 644 (Rock Hill Church Road) will close at Aquia Creek from 9 a.m. Wednesday, December 17, through the morning of Monday, December 22, while crews remove trees. The work is part of preparations for a bridge replacement scheduled to begin in summer 2026.
The closure will affect the stretch between Dunbar Drive and Van Horn Lane. Drivers will be detoured via Garrisonville Road (Route 610), Joshua Road (Route 643), and Mountain View Road (Route 627) before rejoining Rock Hill Church Road.
About 1,600 vehicles travel this section of road daily, according to VDOT’s latest 2024 traffic count. Message boards will notify drivers ahead of the closure.
