Loudoun County, VA – Drivers in western Loudoun should prepare for long-term traffic delays as construction begins on a new roundabout at the intersection of Route 9 and Route 287, officials announced this week.
According to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, the project will affect many daily commuters and could cause extended travel times throughout the area. The county advises drivers to stay informed through its official traffic alerts and project update system.
The Loudoun County Government confirmed that the construction work will continue through summer 2027, with active work zones established around both highways. The project aims to improve traffic flow and safety at the busy intersection, which has long been a congestion point for drivers traveling between Hillsboro and Purcellville.
Officials are encouraging motorists to allow extra travel time, follow posted detours, and remain alert to changing traffic patterns near the construction zone.
This project marks one of the county’s largest ongoing infrastructure improvements and is expected to provide long-term relief once completed.
