VIRGINIA BEACH - Contractor crews with the Virginia Department of Transportation's Laskin Road Bridge Replacement and Widening Project will temporarily close the entrance to the Hilltop Plaza Shopping Center at Laskin Road overnight next week.
To allow for utility work, the signalized entrance into the shopping center will be closed overnight on June 5-9, starting as early as 9 p.m. until as late as 6 a.m.
Motorists attempting to access the shopping center during this time can utilize the alternate entrance into the center at Republic Road. This location will remain open at all times while the utility work is underway. Motorists can also access the shopping center from eastbound Laskin Road through side entrances that have been extended to the mainline.
Message boards will also be in place. Traffic on mainline Laskin Road will not be directly affected by this work.
Additional upcoming work on the Laskin Road Bridge Replacement and Widening Project:
As early as Sunday, June 4, crews will implement a traffic shift on southbound First Colonial Road, between the Target shopping center entrance and Laskin Road to accommodate traffic signal, roadway and utility work.
While crews initiate the traffic shift, law enforcement officers will be directing traffic at the intersection of First Colonial Road and Laskin Road from as early as 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Motorists should use caution when traveling through the intersection and follow directions from law enforcement on scene.
This new alignment will be in place through fall 2023.
These construction activities are weather-dependent, and the schedules are subject to change.
