Spotsylvania, VA – Drivers in western Spotsylvania County are being urged to find alternate routes this morning after a fallen tree blocked Catharpin Road.
According to the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office, Catharpin Rd is currently closed between Crooked Tree Lane and Brock Road as crews work to remove the downed tree and clear debris from the roadway. Deputies said the closure was reported early Saturday and that drivers should avoid the area until further notice.
No injuries have been reported, and authorities have not provided an estimated time for reopening. Officials are advising motorists to use nearby routes such as Brock Rd or Catharpin Rd’s eastern connection to access surrounding neighborhoods.
The sheriff’s office will provide updates once the roadway has been cleared. Residents in the area are reminded to use caution when traveling near work zones and to allow additional travel time during the cleanup process.
