To keep travelers focused on the Fourth of July fun-in-the-sun and fireworks instead of traffic, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will be suspending most highway work zones and lifting most lane closures on interstates and other major roads in Virginia from noon on Monday, July 3 until noon on Wednesday, July 5.
While lane closures will be lifted in most locations, motorists may encounter semi-permanent work zones that remain in place during this time.
