Weather permitting, beginning July 7 at 8 p.m., eastbound Interstate 70 will be temporarily reduced to one lane at mile marker 197, near the Stacks Church Road overpass, east of Warrenton.
This closure is necessary to allow crews with the Improve I-70 Alliance team to complete paving work in the narrow area beneath the bridge. Additionally, this lane reduction will provide greater safety for crews and the public while providing for a higher quality of paving with less overall traffic impacts. This will be a continuous reduction with two-lanes of traffic expected to resume during daylight hours beginning at 7 a.m. Friday morning on July 10.
Motorists can expect travel delays and are encouraged to plan ahead to allow for extra travel time or use alternate routes if possible. Travelers are advised to use caution through work zones, slow down, obey all traffic signs, and avoid any distractions.
