Heads up for night closings on Route 7 in Loudoun... (from Alert Loudoun)
Got this from Alert Loudoun:
Motorists are advised that beginning next week, major night closures will occur on Route 7 near the Loudoun County Parkway due to construction of the new Route 7/Route 607 interchange.
Weather permitting, the closures will begin the night of Monday, July 27 and continue through September 3. Single lane closures will begin at 8:00 p.m. for eastbound Route 7 and 9:00 p.m. for westbound Route 7. Complete closures of Route 7 will occur at 15-minute intervals starting at 10:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m. The work will occur on Monday through Thursday nights and is expected to take six weeks, weather permitting.
Motorists are asked to plan to take alternate routes to avoid the area during the affected time. Traffic updates will be available through the Virginia 511 system by dialing 5-1-1 or by visiting www.511Virginia.org.
The Route 7 & Route 607 interchange is the county’s first road construction project under the local road bond program approved by voters in November 2006.
