FREDERICKSBURG, Va. – Route 621 (Bruington Road) has reopened to through traffic between Route 14 and Route 360 at the bridge over Dickeys Swamp.

Crews completed bridge maintenance repairs more than a month early, ahead of the anticipated mid-December 2024 completion date. The 13-mile detour has been removed.

The bridge over Dickeys Swamp is one of multiple bridges undergoing repair to address scour as part of a $3.1 million maintenance project in the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula. Scour is the erosion of soil around a bridge’s foundation.
