Weather depending, drivers can expect intermittent lane closures on Peters Creek Road northbound and southbound in the city of Roanoke between Valleypointe Parkway and Thirlane Road NW starting the week of Jan. 19. Lane closures are expected between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. through mid-March. One lane each direction will remain open during work.
This project will re-align and signalize the exit 2N ramp from northbound I-581 to northbound Peters Creek Road, eliminating the current merge ramp and making it easier for drivers to access Valleypointe Parkway.
During spring and summer, the current exit ramp will be narrowed, as construction begins on the new exit ramp.
Construction is expected to be completed in late fall 2026.
The schedule is weather dependent and may change. Drivers should pay attention to signs to get the latest information.
