Stafford, VA – Drivers heading north on Interstate 95 through Stafford County should expect delays after two lanes were blocked near exit 148 at the Quantico interchange.
According to the Stafford County Government, the blockage is also affecting part of the off-ramp, leading to backups stretching approximately two miles. The incident was reported Tuesday morning, though the cause of the disruption was not immediately released.
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is urging motorists to check 511.virginia.gov for the latest traffic conditions and possible detour routes. Drivers in the area are advised to allow extra travel time, use caution, and consider alternate routes if possible.
Interstate 95 is one of the busiest travel corridors in Virginia, particularly in Stafford County where daily commuter traffic mixes with long-haul travel. Even short-term lane closures in this area frequently lead to extended backups, officials said.
Motorists traveling northbound should anticipate stop-and-go traffic approaching the interchange and plan accordingly to avoid unexpected delays. There is currently no estimated time for when the lanes will fully reopen.
