Weekend Ramp Work along Dulles Toll Road Now through April

A four month project will replace electronic equipment along the Dulles Toll Road ramps. Single lane closures are planned in the work zone. Only one ramp along the 14-mile Toll Road will be affected at a time. While work crews are present, traffic will be directed through the open lanes.

Schedule:

• Project begins January 13 and runs through April.
• Ramp work is scheduled for weekends only, weather permitting.
• Work commences Friday nights after 9:30pm and concludes by 5:00am Monday morning.

The project is necessary so crews can replace aging electronic equipment cabinets which are integral to the operation of the toll lanes. Ramps without toll plazas will not experience lane closures as part of this project.
