Hampton, VA – Drivers in Hampton and Poquoson should prepare for lane reductions along Wythe Creek Road beginning as early as Monday, November 11, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT).
VDOT officials said a segment of Wythe Creek Road near Commander Shepard Boulevard will be reduced from two lanes to one lane in each direction. The temporary traffic change is needed to accommodate utility work as part of the ongoing widening project.
According to VDOT, the work zone may cause significant travel delays, particularly during peak commute hours. Motorists are encouraged to plan extra travel time or use alternate routes to avoid congestion in the area.
The utility work is part of a larger infrastructure improvement effort designed to enhance traffic flow and safety along Wythe Creek Road between Hampton and Poquoson.
Full project details and updates can be found on VDOT’s official website or through the link provided in their announcement: https://conta.cc/4hJTD0h.
