Travel on I-66 East and West near Route 234 Business (Sudley Road) in Manassas will be reduced to a single lane in each direction for about one mile during the overnight hours Saturday, Feb. 19, and Sunday, Feb. 20, as bridge beams are installed for a new access ramp to the future I-66 Express Lanes. Two-way traffic will run on the I-66 West side so that crews can safely install bridge beams over I-66 East. This work is part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project.
The ramps from Route 234 Business North and South to I-66 East will also be closed during this period.
Drivers traveling on I-66 and Route 234 Business during this time should expect delays and should consider using alternate routes.
All work is weather dependent and will be rescheduled if inclement conditions occur.
