I-81 SOUTHBOUND MILLING AND PAVING STARTS MAY 15 IN ROCKINGHAM COUNTY
STAUNTON – Beginning Sunday night, May 15, southbound Interstate 81 motorists should be alert for overnight lane closures at two locations in Rockingham County. Contractors will be milling and paving from mile marker 251.2 to 247.9 near Harrisonburg, and from mile marker 240.5 to 238.6 near Mount Crawford.
Both work zones require alternating lane closures on southbound I-81 Sunday through Thursday nights from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. There also will be occasional on- or off-ramp closures at interchanges within the work zones. During these times, digital message signs will advise motorists of detour routes.
