On Tuesday, Oct. 13 the Virginia Department of Transportation will begin the final phase of road construction in the effort to build a new bridge over the Rappahannock River.
Construction crews will demolish an existing overpass, that stands about 15 feet tall on the southbound portion of Interstate 95 at Route 17 in Stafford County, and replace it with a new, taller overpass. The higher bridge means will eliminate potential strikes and collisions by trucks and other oversized vehicles driving underneath.
