Annapolis Way Turn Lane Closes Oct. 2; Detours In Place: VDOT

WOODBRIDGE, VA — The left turn lane from Annapolis Way to northbound Route 1 (Jefferson Davis Highway) will be closed temporarily to allow crews to construct a new median at the intersection, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation. The closure went into effect at noon today.

The construction is part of the Route 1 widening project, according to a release. The $165 million project includes adding a lane in each direction to Route 1 between Marys Way and Annapolis Way, a new Route 1 bridge at Marumsco Creek, improvements to Occoquan Road, a shared-use path, sidewalk and other improvements.

Traffic will be detoured via southbound Route 1, Route 123, Horner Road and Occoquan Road back to northbound Route 1. The closure is expected to last about six weeks.
