Lane closures expected to last through the summer; two full-service and three E-ZPass lanes remain open
Beginning on Wednesday, July 17, construction will continue along the eastbound Dulles Toll Road impacting the Main Toll Plaza. As a result, two center lanes will be closed for several consecutive weeks and occasional traffic congestion is expected.
During the closures, two full-service lanes on the right, two E-ZPass lanes on the left and one E-ZPass lane on the right will remain open eastbound. Please see below for more detailed information.
Customers should follow new directional signage and be prepared for delays during high-volume travel times. All work is weather dependent and subject to change.
Dulles Toll Road Eastbound
When: Wednesday, July 17, 2019
What: Multi-Lane Shutdown
Where: Main Toll Plaza, between Exits 16 and 17
Toll Lane: Two center lanes (lanes 3 and 4)
Why: Installation of new toll collection system
To mitigate the traffic impacts, motorists are encouraged to:
- Have exact change ready if using the full-service lanes.
- Adjust your morning commute by arriving at the main toll plaza before 8:00 a.m. or after 10:00 a.m.
- Please be patient. We are working to provide a minimally disruptive driving experience and a safe construction zone for workers.
Following the two initial lane closures, an announcement will be made on lane closures for lanes 1, 2 and 3 later this summer.
