To make traveling easier and aid a quicker arrival and return this Labor Day weekend, the Virginia Department of Transportation will suspend many highway work zones and lift most lane closures on interstates and other major roads in Virginia from noon on Friday, September 3, until noon on Tuesday, September 7.
While lane closures will be lifted in most locations, motorists may encounter semi-permanent work zones that remain in place during this time.
Based on the traffic data, periods of moderate to heavy congestion will most likely occur between noon and 6:00 p.m. on Friday and Monday. Additionally, routes to Virginia Beach are likely to be congested mid-morning to evening on Saturday.
STAY SAFE
It’s everyone’s responsibility to drive responsibly. Do your part to make travel safer for all:
- If you plan to drink, have a designated driver
- Buckle up and ensure children and car seats are secured
- Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you
- Use signals for lane changes and turns
- Cars can heat dangerously fast on hot days: don’t leave children or pets in parked cars for any amount of time
- Don’t drive distracted, and speak up if someone else is doing so
