Route 250 bridge at Ivy to close July 13 for two-week replacement project

Western Albemarle commuters will face a challenge for two weeks in July when the Virginia Department of Transportation closes the bridge over Little Ivy Creek near Ivy west of Charlottesville. The closure, which begins Friday, July 13, is necessary to replace the deteriorating structure. … Using accelerated construction techniques, the bridge will be replaced with precast box culverts that can be set more quickly, minimizing the length of the road closure. The bridge will reopen to traffic on or before Friday, July 27.
