Weekend-long Closure of Ramp from Route 50 West to I-66 West Planned June 17-20 for the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project
Ramp to remain closed Friday night through Monday morning with detour route posted
FAIRFAX – Ramp reconstruction work will require the ramp from Route 50 West to I-66 West to be closed continuously throughout next weekend, June 17-20. The ramp will be closed beginning at 10 p.m. Friday, June 17, and remain closed through 5 a.m. Monday, June 20. Traffic will be detoured farther west to Route 608 (West Ox Road) South, stay to the right to Route 50 East, then follow signs to I-66 West. The closure is needed as 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 a new shared-use path as part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project.
Construction and lane closure updates are available at Transform66.org and on Twitter @VaDOTNOVA. To receive project updates automatically by email, sign up here.
