VIRGINIA BEACH — As part of the Laskin Road Bridge Replacement and Widening Project, motorists will encounter a new traffic pattern on Laskin Road in both directions this week, weather permitting.
Starting as early as Friday, March 29, both eastbound travel lanes on Laskin Road, between Fremac Drive and Red Robin Road, will be shifted left onto two lanes of the westbound bridge over Linkhorn Bay. The westbound lanes will shift right on the westbound bridge to accommodate two lanes of travel in both directions on the same bridge. These traffic shifts will allow for the demolition and reconstruction of the existing eastbound bridge over Linkhorn Bay, estimated to be complete early 2025.
Starting as early as 7 a.m., contractor crews are scheduled to implement a single-lane closure eastbound on Laskin Road at this location, as well as a brief stoppage, to implement the traffic shift.
Motorists traveling through the work zone should stay alert and obey the 35 mph speed limit.
Access to properties within this traffic shift will be maintained at all times. Temporary driveway entrances will be provided to the businesses and side roads along this portion of eastbound Laskin Road.
This construction work is weather- and schedule-dependent; therefore, this schedule is subject to change.
