HAMPTON, Va. (WAVY) — The I-64 East off-ramp to Rip Rap Road, exit 265C, is scheduled to close each night from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 12 and Wednesday, Sept. 13.
Crews will be setting a concrete barrier and re-striping the ramp as part of construction for the Hampton Roads Express Lanes, or HREL, Hampton Segment, according to a release.
A signed detour route will be in place to direct motorists.
The I-64 west traffic shift at the Hampton River bridge implemented earlier this month is estimated to remain in place through as early as summer 2024, according to a release. The continuous, single-lane closures on I-64 in both directions between Settlers Landing Road/Woodland Road, exit 267, and west of Lasalle Avenue, exit 265, are estimated to be in place into 2026, according to the release.
VDOT encouraged motorists to use I-664 as an alternate route to avoid the work area when possible. Additional ramp closures are expected in the coming weeks, and will be announced as the work is scheduled.
Motorists can plan their drive by downloading the 511Virginia app, visiting their website or dialing 511 for traffic information.
