The Sunday work will require stopping traffic for up to 15 minutes at a time on South King Street (Route 15) in Leesburg near the Route 7 Bypass interchange, and just east of the interchange on Route 7 Bypass. Crews will work from 5:30 a.m. until 9 p.m.
Throughout the day, State Police and VDOT will monitor traffic queues and temporarily suspend stoppages if necessary to relieve delays.
The work is part of Dominion Virginia Power’s construction of a 12-mile, high-voltage power line from a new substation northwest of Hamilton, near the intersection of Berlin Turnpike and Route 7, to a substation off Cochran Mill Road east of Leesburg. The project requires crews to string electric lines along about nine miles of VDOT roads, crossing them a total of 15 times. Periodic traffic stops will continue through mid-September.
