Night Paving on North Commerce Avenue
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has scheduled night paving work on N. Commerce Avenue, between Royal Avenue and 4th Street. This important maintenance project will take place from 8 PM to 6 AM, weather permitting.
The first phase of the project involves milling, which will occur from July 24 to July 26, 2024. The paving work will follow from July 29 to August 2, 2024. After paving, the contractor will restore the pavement markings. Throughout the project, there will be lane shifts within the work zones to accommodate the work, and signs will be in place to guide motorists.
Drivers are advised to exercise caution while driving in these areas due to uneven pavement surfaces and active work crews. VDOT apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciates the public’s patience and cooperation.
For any questions or more information, contact Public Works at 540-635-7819, Monday through Friday, from 7 AM to 3:30 PM.
