Temporary lane closings on 419 in Salem next week

If you travel on route 419 between Lynchburg Turnpike and Roanoke Boulevard, plan on finding an alternate route next week unless you've got time for delays.

Here's the complete release from the city of Salem:

The passing lanes on both the northbound and southbound sides of Route 419 between Lynchburg Turnpike and Roanoke Blvd. will be closed Monday, August 11th through Friday, August 15th. This will reduce the traffic flow in that area from four lanes to two.

City Street crews will be working on the median area in front of Fire Station #2 in order to extend the turning lane. This construction will provide better access for rescue personnel vehicles that access the station on a daily basis.

Motorists should expect delays, and are encouraged to seek an alternate route when at all possible during the construction period.
