VIRGINIA BEACH — As part of the Laskin Road Bridge Replacement and Widening Project, motorists should expect changes to the traffic pattern on First Colonial Road in both directions, weather permitting.
As early as Jan. 21, both southbound travel lanes on First Colonial Road will be shifted right onto the newly widened roadway from Republic Road to the vicinity of the I-264 overpass.
As early as Jan. 22, both northbound travel lanes on First Colonial Road will be shifted to the left onto the existing southbound roadway from the vicinity of the I-264 overpass to Republic Road.
These traffic shifts will allow crews to continue roadway construction on the existing south and northbound lanes. Alternating, single-lane closures will be in place starting as early as 7 a.m. to help crews safely implement the shift.
Motorists should stay alert when traveling through the work zone and obey the 35 mph speed limit.
Access to properties within this traffic shift will be maintained at all times. The current alignment of Laskin Road at this location will not change as part of this shift.
This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule is subject to change.
