NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN COMING THIS WEEKEND AT INTERCHANGE PROJECT
Traffic shift to be implemented at flyover ramp from I-64 west to mainline I-264 east
NORFOLK/VIRGINIA BEACH – As progress continues on the I-64/I-264 Interchange Improvements Project, crews with the Virginia Department of Transportation will implement a traffic shift this weekend affecting the flyover ramp from I-64 west to mainline I-264 east.

Beginning as early as 9 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 20, traffic on the flyover ramp from I-64 west to mainline I-264 east (exit 284B) will be shifted to the right, allowing crews to remove the consecutive, single-lane closure that has been in place on mainline I-264 east since mid-December 2021. This ramp will remain open, with one lane available to traffic, while work is underway.

This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule is subject to change.

Due to the nature and scope of this work, motorists are encouraged to prepare for delays and seek alternate routes, when possible. Plan your commute with VDOT’s free traffic information tools:
