FAIRFAX – Drivers on southbound Nutley Street will use a new ramp and traffic signal to reach I-66 East beginning on or about Wednesday, June 24. This is the first of a series of temporary traffic pattern changes at the Nutley Street Interchange as construction of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project continues. This change will allow pavement rehabilitation to advance for the new eastbound I-66 general purpose lanes while crews prepare to reconstruct the Nutley Street Interchange.

Starting on or about June 24, drivers should expect the following traffic pattern changes, weather permitting:

• The loop ramp from southbound Nutley Street to I-66 East will close. Drivers will access I-66 East by turning left at a temporary traffic signal onto a new ramp that merges with the existing ramp from northbound Nutley Street to I-66 East.
• Two travel lanes will continue through the interchange in both directions.
• Drivers traveling north on Nutley Street should remain alert for traffic turning left from southbound Nutley Street heading to I-66 East at the new temporary signal-controlled intersection. The traffic signals will operate in a flashing mode prior to the ramp closure, and will begin operating in full color when the traffic change takes place.

The loop ramp from southbound Nutley Street to I-66 East will close on or about Wednesday, June 24. Southbound traffic will use a new traffic signal to turn left onto the ramp to I-66 East.
