I-264/Witchduck Road Interchange & Ramp Extension

This project is the second phase of the Virginia Department of Transportation’s (VDOT) $363 million program to improve the I-264 corridor in Virginia Beach by increasing its capacity to reduce daily congestion.

Overview

Lane is extending a collector-distributor road, reconfiguring the south side of the interchanges at Newtown Road and Witchduck Road, and building a new signature bridge over I-264 that will connect Greenwich Road to Cleveland Street. The bridge includes aesthetic enhancements like lighting and a replica lighthouse beside it.

To minimize disruption to the estimated 55,000 average daily travelers, the project has been divided into 22 separate construction phases as part of a complicated maintenance of traffic plan. It is expected to be complete in fall 2021.

Technical Highlights

The project also includes:

  • the widening of one existing bridge
  • more than 500,000 CY of excavation and embankment
  • more than 15,000 CY of concrete
  • 20,000 LF of storm sewer pipe
  • more than 43,800 SF of MSE walls
