VDOT TO REOPEN ROADS IN KING WILLIAM COUNTY

FREDERICKSBURG – Heavy rains from tropical storm Gaston forced VDOT to close more than a dozen roads in King William County for weeks. However, the Department is please to announce that all but 3 of these roads will reopen today.
VDOT personnel and contractors have been working non-stop since the August 30 storm to repair the damaged roads.
Crews will continue to work on the roads that will remain closed. These roads sustained extensive damage. There is no estimated time of reopening at this time.
Routes 602, 652 and 604 will open today.
Roads that will remain closed:
Route 607 between Rt. 643 and Rt. 608
Route 610 between Rt. 609 and Rt. 608
Route 618 between Rt. 360 and Rt. 681
