Traffic Advisory:

The Abingdon Police Department was notified this morning that the Exit 19 lane and on-ramp will be closed again today. According to VDOT, the contractor experienced an equipment issue which delayed completion of the work last night. All traffic attempting to access I-81 southbound from the Damascus side of highway will need to enter at exit 22 to avoid congestion.

Please do not call the police department to voice concerns about this issue. This project is not in the Town Limits of Abingdon and is a project of the Virginia Department of Transportation. The Town of Abingdon is only providing this information as a service to our citizens, we have no control over the project, the traffic, or the timeline for completion. Thank you for understanding!
