VDOT News - Northern Virginia

Update: Due to weather, the I-66 overnight traffic shifts in Arlington have been postponed. They are now scheduled to occur (weather permitting) as follows: 

ROSSLYN – The eastbound and westbound I-66 lanes on the bridge over the ramp from southbound George Washington Memorial Parkway to eastbound I-66/westbound Route 50 and the ramp from northbound Route 110 to westbound I-66 will be shifting (weather permitting) overnight Sunday, June 9 and Tuesday, June 11, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation.

The lane shifts will occur as follows:

• Eastbound I-66: Lanes will shift to the left between 8:30 p.m. Sunday, June 9 and 5 a.m. Monday, June 10.
• Westbound I-66: Lanes will shift to the left between 10 p.m. Tuesday, June 11 and 6 a.m. Wednesday, June 12.

Drivers should expect delays and are advised to use alternate routes.

As a result of these shifts, the eastbound and westbound I-66 lanes will be back in their normal configuration. Since April, both directions of I-66 have been routed on the outside of the bridge to allow rehabilitation work to occur on the inside. 

The I-66 over Route 110 and George Washington Memorial Parkway ramps project is scheduled for completion later this summer.
