Bridge replacement in Rockingham County beginning June 24

STAUNTON — A portion of Route 613 (North Mountain Road) in Rockingham County will be closed to through traffic for about one week beginning Monday, June 24. This closure between Route 259 (Brocks Gap Road) and Route 881 (Orchard Drive) allows the Virginia Department of Transportation to replace the bridge over Tusing Run with a box culvert.

Detour will be as follows:

• Traveling south on Route 259 for 3 miles, turn left onto Route 617 (Spar Mine Road) for 2.6 miles, turn left onto Route 42 (North Main Street, Timberville), turn immediate left onto Route 881, drive 3.1 miles then turn left onto Route 613.
• Traveling north on Route 613, turn right onto Route 881 for 3.8 miles, turn right onto Route 42, turn immediate right onto Route 617, drive 2.6 miles then turn right onto Route 259.

The work is expected to be completed on or about Friday, June 28. All work is weather permitting.
