VDOT News - Northern Virginia

FAIRFAX – The ramp from I-66 East to Route 50 West will be closed next weekend, beginning at 10 p.m. Friday, August 12, continuously through 5 a.m. Monday, August 15. Traffic will be detoured farther east to Route 123 (Chain Bridge Road), stay to the left and turn left at the traffic signal onto Route 123 North, stay to the right to I-66 West, and then follow signs to Route 50 West. The work is part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project.

Drivers should expect delays if traveling in this area and consider using alternate routes.  All work is weather dependent and will be rescheduled if inclement conditions occur.

The I-66/Route 50 Interchange is being rebuilt to add Express Lane access to and from the east and to construct new shared-use path as part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project.
