RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - The Virginia Department of Transportation began implementing a new traffic pattern on Maury Street overnight Sunday.
This change comes as the transition to full use of the newly-constructed, single-lane roundabout at the I-95 interchange continues.
The changes to traffic flow are as follows:
- All traffic will begin use of the roundabout, including traffic exiting I-95. Traffic signals used for the former interchange will be removed.
- The foot of the existing I-95 exit ramp (near Maury Street) will be closed for continued construction. All I-95 traffic should use the roundabout to reach their destinations until work on the right turn lane that will occupy the existing ramp is complete.
- 4th Street will remain closed between Maury and Everett Streets. The truck detour that began in early October will be lifted, allowing trucks to begin using the roundabout.
