SOUTH CHESTERFIELD, Va. — At its monthly meeting, the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB) awarded two contracts for projects in the Virginia Department of Transportation’s (VDOT) Richmond District.

I-95 Bridge Superstructure Replacement over Reymet Road – Chesterfield County

A project worth approximately $5.5 million was awarded to Archer Western Construction LLC of Herndon, Virginia, to replace the superstructure of the Interstate 95 bridge over Reymet Road (state Route 608), located between the state Route 288 and Willis Road interchanges. The purpose of this project is to replace the bridge’s superstructure and to increase the bridge’s vertical height clearance from 14 feet, 4 inches to at least 14 feet, 6 inches.

Drivers can expect single or double lane closures during work. Work is expected to begin in summer 2021 and end in late 2022.
