LANE CLOSURE COMING TO SOUTHBOUND BROADVIEW AVE.
Warrenton drivers should stay alert for workers near travel lanes and business entrances
CULPEPER — Beginning Monday, March 31, the right lane of southbound U.S. 17 Business (Broadview Avenue) will be closed between Gold Cup Drive and Roebling Street in the Town of Warrenton for approximately 45 days.
Crews will be replacing curbs and sidewalks along this section of the roadway from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. as part of the Broadview Avenue improvement project. The lanes will remain closed during the overnight hours due to safety restrictions which regulate the distance between construction equipment and the traveling public.
Additional, temporary lane closures may be possible during the work hours, but access to businesses along the corridor will remain open. Drivers should exercise caution and stay alert for workers near entryways.
This SMART Scale project aims to improve safety and ease traffic congestion along the corridor and is scheduled for completion in May 2026.
