LEESBURG BYPASS IMPROVEMENT PROJECT OVERNIGHT LANE CLOSURE
Removal of existing overhead sign structure
Leesburg, VA (November 29, 2021) – Toll Road Investors Partnership LP II (TRIP II) owner of the Dulles Greenway today announced that there will be a double lane closure of the right lane and the ramp (15 Business to Leesburg) lane Sunday, December 5th starting at 9:30 p.m. until midnight, to prepare for the removal of the overhead sign. After midnight Shirley Construction Company will do a full stoppage of RT-7W (Bypass) for up to 20 minutes intervals with the lane closures completed by 4:00 a.m. The lane closure could be pushed to December 6th due to weather. Drivers should use extra caution when traveling through this area and follow all directions from the posted signs and road crews.
Shirley Contracting Company, LLC, the Lorton-based contractor for the project, is now focused on the construction of the retaining walls to accommodate a new exit lane from westbound Route 7 and the Dulles Greenway. Temporary signage will be installed to allow the new lane to be opened to traffic as quickly as possible. This will put the flow of traffic into its final configuration, while the construction team works on the permanent overhead signage for the project.
TRIP II joined a tri-party agreement with Loudoun County and the Town of Leesburg to approve the project designed to relieve congestion at the west end of the Greenway. Funding for the project was provided by Loudoun County and TRIP II. TRIP II will manage the construction and design implementation on behalf of Loudoun County. Once the improvement project is complete and accepted according to VDOT’s standards, the ownership of the project will transfer to the Commonwealth of Virginia. Final completion of all construction activities will be by April 2022.
