FREDERICKSBURG – The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will temporarily close a median crossover for three days next week at the Route 360 and Route 624 (Newland Road) intersection in Richmond County.
Starting Tuesday, June 23, the Route 360 median crossover will close for construction work underway to improve the intersection. The crossover will remain closed 24 hours a day until it reopens on Thursday, June 25.
Message boards will alert travelers of this upcoming crossover closure. Signs will guide motorists along the detour, which includes nearby crossovers along Route 360.
The $2.8 million VDOT project under construction is making several improvements to reduce the risk that vehicle paths will overlap at the intersection, resulting in a crash.
Improvements include:
- New right turn lane from Route 360 westbound onto Newland Road.
- New crossover for Route 360 westbound traffic to U-turn and travel east on Route 360 eastbound, toward the Town of Warsaw. This crossover will be built east of the existing crossover at Route 360 and Newland Road.
- Signs will prohibit Route 360 westbound traffic from using the existing Newland Road intersection crossover to turn left and U-turn onto eastbound Route 360.
- West of the Route 360 and Newland Road intersection, a crossover will be closed.
Construction began in April 2026 and will be complete in Sept. 2026.
