Crews are installing pavement markers and rumble strips after recent paving at Exit 143, and they're gathering soil samples along I-95 with mobile lane closures. We suggest leaving extra time on Route 3 westbound in Spotsylvania, where a right lane is closed from 4 a.m. to noon for roadway reconstruction.
- Falmouth Bridge: alternating lanes, Mon.–Fri., 7 p.m.–6 a.m.
- Route 1 at Russell Road: lane reductions, Wed.–Fri., 7 p.m.–7 a.m.
- Route 360 Downing Bridge: one-way alternating, Thu.–Fri., 8 p.m.–5 a.m.
