FREDERICKSBURG, Va. – The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will reduce Route 205 (Ridge Road) near the King George County and Westmoreland County line to one lane beginning Tuesday, Nov. 12, at the bridge over Rosier Creek for repairs.

A temporary traffic signal will be installed to direct one-way, alternating traffic on Route 205 during the project. This traffic pattern will be in place 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Route 205 will be reduced to a single lane at Rosier Creek for approximately three months, through late Jan. 2025.

This is one of multiple bridges undergoing repair as part of the $3.1 million bridge maintenance project in the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula areas to address structure scour.

Scour is the erosion of soil around a bridge’s foundation.

Weather permitting, the road will reopen in late Jan. 2025.

Message boards will be posted to alert travelers to upcoming work.
