NORFOLK – The 24-hour full time closure of the W. Bay Avenue on-ramp to I-64 East has been extended through March 2023. Motorists should continue to follow the detour to access I-64 East using the on-ramp at Patrol Road. Continue straight on W. Bay Avenue Turn right on Granby Street Continue approximately one mile Turn right on Patrol Road Turn left to the I-64 East on-ramp The extension of the closure is necessary as crews work to prepare the new on-ramp to I-64 East.
