NORFOLK – Starting as early as Wednesday, Dec. 6, contractor crews with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) are scheduled to implement a series of overnight ramp closures along I-64 as part of construction for the Hampton Roads Express Lanes (HREL) Norfolk Segment.


The estimated schedule for this work includes the full closures of the:  

  • I-64 west off-ramp to Granby Street (exit 276A) Dec. 6, from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.
  • I-564 east on-ramp to I-64 west, Dec. 6, from 7 p.m. to Dec. 7, 2 p.m.  
  • I-64 west off-ramp to Tidewater Drive south (exit 277A) Dec. 7, from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m.

The HREL Norfolk Segment will ultimately become a part of the overall HREL network, a continuous, 45-mile network of Express Lanes in each traffic direction on I-64, from east of Denbigh Boulevard in Newport News to the I-64/I-264/I-664 Bowers Hill Interchange in Chesapeake. The HREL network is designed to transport more motorists through the region while helping to alleviate congestion and providing motorists more travel options.
