I-66 Outside the Beltway Project: Lane closures and traffic changes week of September 9th

What’s Happening week of September 9
Crews will continue shifting travel lanes and setting up concrete barriers to create safe work zones along Interstate 66. Upcoming planned construction activities include:
• Setting up long-term lane shifts along I-66 between Sudley Road and Bull Run Drive, from Route 28 to West Ox Road, and between Cedar Lane and I-495
• Clearing trees and brush inside the Route 28 and Route 123 interchanges and other areas where work zones are in place
• Temporarily relocating underground utilities continues along I-66 near Jermantown Road
• Continuing work to widen the median between Route 123 and Blake Lane to support upcoming traffic shifts

The Transform 66 Outside the Beltway project will add express lanes stretching 22.5 miles from the Capital Beltway to Route 29 in Gainesville, rebuild major interchanges along the I-66 corridor, create thousands of new park and ride spaces, and expand trail options for cyclists and pedestrians.
