Loudoun County, Virginia – A traffic signal malfunction at a major Loudoun County intersection is causing delays and prompting drivers to seek alternate routes.
According to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, traffic signals are not functioning properly at Little River Turnpike (U.S. 50) and Loudoun County Parkway (Virginia 606). Authorities advised motorists to avoid the area while crews address the issue.
The intersection serves as a key connector for commuters traveling between eastern Loudoun County and Fairfax County. Malfunctioning signals at the junction can significantly disrupt afternoon and evening traffic flow, particularly during peak travel periods.
Drivers traveling along U.S. 50 or Loudoun County Parkway should expect slowdowns and consider alternate routes until repairs are completed. Officials have not provided an estimated timeline for when the signals will be restored.
No crashes or injuries were immediately reported in connection with the malfunction.
The intersection is frequently used by students, commuters and local business traffic, and congestion may increase if the issue persists.
Motorists are urged to use caution and treat non-functioning signals as a four-way stop unless otherwise directed by law enforcement.
