Fairfax County — On Tuesday, April 10, the Virginia Department of Transportation is permanently closing the intersection of Donegal Lane and the Fairfax County Parkway, and simultaneously opening the overpass carrying the new alignment of Rolling Road over the parkway.

To implement that new road configuration, there will be multiple lane closures on the parkway in the area of Rolling Road and Donegal Lane beginning at 9 a.m. April 10.

In addition to the lane closures, temporary traffic shut-downs of the parkway northbound and southbound will occur between10 a.m. until noon. These stoppages will be between 5 and 15 minutes in length for removal of traffic signals.

After the new road configuration is in place, motorists will no longer be able to access the parkway from Donegal Lane at the intersection, and motorists will not be able to turn onto Donegal Lane. Motorists who want to access Donegal Lane from the Fairfax County Parkway will be required to follow the signs for Rolling Road or take the Barta Road exit ramp. Temporary message boards and new signs will be in place to direct motorists to the new access areas.
