VDOT: “To make Thanksgiving travel more enjoyable and, most importantly, safe, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will be suspending many highway work zones and lifting most lane closures on interstates and other major roads in Virginia from noon on Wednesday, Nov. 22 until noon on Monday, Nov. 27.”
While lane closures will be lifted in most locations, motorists may encounter semi-permanent work zones that remain in place during this time. Check VDOT’s Weekly Lane Closures and Travel Advisories for the latest travel alerts in your area and around the state.
OnniRide: “In observance of Thanksgiving, OmniRide buses will operate as follows:
“From the 14th Street Bridge to the terminus near Route 17, Transurban will be conducting tests ahead of the planned opening of new access points at Russell Road and Courthouse Road in Stafford County, as well as the new Opitz Boulevard ramp that will replace the Dale Boulevard ramp in Prince William County.”
“More tests will be conducted on December 1-2, 2023, beginning at or about 10 p.m. and ending at or about 5 a.m. each instance.”
“The existing 95 Express Lanes are reversible and operate only in the direction of peak travel. This project will investigate the feasibility of adding additional capacity to a portion of the 95 Express Lanes, allowing counterflow express lanes in the off-peak direction. As envisioned, the project is expected to address existing congestion and provide further optionality and time savings to Transurban’s express lane customers.”
“Specific development objectives of the feasibility assessment include preliminary estimates regarding:
Quantico Marine Corps Base: “The Virginia Railway Express will be closing the Potomac Ave. railroad crossing from 5 p.m., Nov. 17 – 5 a.m. Nov. 19. Access to the Town of Quantico will be through the Broadway St. Gate 3.”
VDOT: “The Virginia Department of Transportation will shift Interstate 95 northbound traffic at the Rappahannock River into its final alignment this week, doubling northbound capacity in the Fredericksburg area.”
“After five years of construction in the Fredericksburg area to improve I-95, with a combined investment of $264 million to build the I-95 Northbound and Southbound Rappahannock River Crossings, there will be 12 interstate lanes spanning the river ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.”
