NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN BEGINS NEXT WEEK

 ON MAURY STREET IN RICHMOND

Separate detour will be in place for trucks

 

RICHMOND, Va. Overnight Thursday, September 30, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will begin implementing a new traffic pattern on Maury Street in Richmond as part of a roundabout and interchange improvement project.  

 

Weather permitting, the traffic shift will be complete by Friday, October 1.

 

There will be two separate detours in place for passenger vehicles and trucks:

 

Passenger vehicles:

 

To access I-95 or 4th St. from Maury St. Take Commerce Rd. south to Dinwiddie Ave. west to 4th St. (then onto the I-95 ramp if needed).

or

Continue on Maury St. using newly constructed portion of roundabout to access I-95, 4th St. or to stay on Maury St. (Note: Trucks will be prohibited on this detour route. Use the below designated truck detours.)

Trucks:

To access I-95 or 4th St. from Maury St.Take Commerce Rd. south to Dinwiddie Ave. to 4th St. north (then onto the I-95 ramp if needed).

or

Take Commerce Rd. north to Hull St. west to 3rd St. south back to Maury St.

The Exit 73 ramp from I-95 to Maury Street will not be affected by this traffic shift. Two segments of 4th Street, between Everett Street and Maury Street, and between Maury Street and the on ramp to I-95, remain closed as part of the project.

The primary purpose of the $7.9 million project is to improve traffic flow through the I-95/Maury Street interchange during peak hours. The project will address current deficiencies in capacity, geometry and safety.

 

More information about the project and the construction of the single lane roundabout can be found here: https://www.virginiadot.org/projects/richmond/i-95-maury_street_interchange_improvements.asp.
