CULPEPER — The Virginia Department of Transportation will rehabilitate the Route 735 (Keyser Road) bridge over Buck Run in Fauquier County.
Beginning Sept. 20, Route 735 will be closed to through traffic. Weather permitting, the road will reopen on Oct. 14.
The existing bridge, located about 1.3-mile from Route 688 (Leeds Manor Road), was built in 1952 and has a posted weight limit of 16 tons. When construction is complete, the bridge will be open to all legal weight vehicles.
Motorists are advised to use alternate routes during the closure.
