Norfolk, Va. – VDOT maintenance crews have scheduled test lifts at the Interstate 264 Berkley Bridge on Wednesday, Jan. 30, and Thursday, Jan 31, 2013.
Crews will perform up to eight test lifts, as traffic conditions permit, between the hours of 8 p.m. to 3 a.m., with each opening expected to last up to 10 minutes.
After each test opening, crews will reopen the bridge to traffic allowing the queue to clear. Crews will test the span as part of routine maintenance.
VDOT attempts to schedule maintenance during travel periods when traffic volumes are lower, to reduce impact to motorists.
