FREDERICKSBURG, Va. – The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has closed Route 600 (Neenah Road) over Marshall Creek in Westmoreland County for motorist safety.
During a routine inspection of a culvert, crews discovered significant erosion and a depression in the road.
Once high water recedes from the culvert, crews will be able to further evaluate the extent of the damage and determine repair plans.
Motorists should follow signs posted along the recommended detour:
- Route 600 (Neenah Road)
- Route 202 (Cople Highway)
- Route 3 (Kings Highway)
- Route 621 (Nomini Grove Road)
