Lane Closures Scheduled on Virginia Beach Boulevard for Sewer Pipeline Replacement Work

Body

VIRGINIA BEACH – Motorists are advised that HRSD crews will be performing utility work beginning Monday, April 6 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and continuing daily while traffic volumes are reduced during Virginia’s Temporary Stay At Home Order*.

During this time, traffic may be reduced to two lanes in either direction on Virginia Beach Boulevard between North Lynnhaven Road and North Great Neck Road. This continuous work schedule is needed to safely install the new sewer pipe along Virginia Beach Boulevard. Motorists should exercise caution while driving through the area and may experience delays.

The work is weather dependent and subject to change or require additional time and is part of the Virginia Beach Boulevard Pipeline Replacement Project.

HRSD’s mission is to protect public health and the waters of Hampton Roads by treating wastewater effectively. A political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia, HRSD was created by public referendum in 1940 and currently serves 18 cities and counties in southeast Virginia, an area with a population of 1.7 million.

*HRSD is part of the essential critical infrastructure workforce and is exempt from this order. Effective regional wastewater treatment remains critical to reducing public health threats arising from waterborne diseases.
