LANE CLOSURES CONTINUE ON I-264 EAST IN NORFOLK AND VIRGINIA BEACH FOR BRIDGE WORK 

VIRGINIA BEACH – As construction progresses on Phase II of the I-64/I-264 Interchange Improvements Project, contractor crews with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will continue with a series of lane closures on I-264 east for bridge work. 

The collector-distributor (CD) lanes will not be impacted during daytime, temporary traffic configurations.

This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule is subject to change. Motorists should stay alert and be mindful of crews working alongside the roadway at all times.

Sept. 23-26

Beginning as early as 9 p.m. tonight, Sept. 23, crews are scheduled to implement triple left-lane closures on the I-264 mainline, from the I-64 flyovers to just west of Witchduck Road (exit 16). This temporary traffic configuration is estimated to continue through Sept. 26 at 5 a.m. when crews will shift to double left-lane closures.

Sept. 26 to Oct. 3

Beginning at 5 a.m. on Sept. 26, crews are scheduled to shift to double left-lane closures on the I-264 mainline, from the I-64 flyovers to just west of Witchduck Road (exit 16). This temporary traffic configuration is estimated to continue through Oct. 3 at 5 a.m. 

Oct. 3-7

Crews will utilize alternating, single-lane daytime closures and multi-lane overnight closures beginning as early as 5 a.m. on Oct. 3 through 5 a.m. on Oct. 7 to complete the final work.
