QUANTICO, Va. — Yes, Interstate 95 south at Quantico closed during the overnight hours last weekend And, it’ll close again this weekend, too.
Virginia Department of Transportation officials plan to close a southbound portion of the highway in North Stafford at 9:30 p.m. Friday so crews can lay steel for a new bridge that crosses the highway.
The bridge carries traffic on Telegraph Road from U.S. 1 to a back gate to Quantico Marine Corps Base.
Here’s more information from VDOT:
Weather permitting, on Friday night, July 19, through Sunday night July 21, starting each night at 9:30 p.m., the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will begin to close lanes on I-95 south near Exit 148, Marine Corps Base Quantico (MCBQ). Following the single and multiple lane closures, crews will progress to a full closure of I-95 south by 1 a.m. until 4 a.m., Saturday morning; 1 a.m. until 5 a.m., Sunday morning; and 1 a.m. until 3 a.m. Monday morning.
This closure will allow crews to safely lift steel beams into place for the new Telegraph Road Bridge over the I-95 southbound lanes in Quantico.
Detour via Russell Road (Exit 148, MCBQ) to U.S. Rte. 1
Detour:
• All I-95 southbound traffic will be directed to Exit 148, MCBQ, to U.S. Route 1 south to Garrisonville Road (Route 610) and back onto I-95 South. Police will be on-site and traffic- signal timing will be adjusted to assist with this detour.
• Motorists may experience up to 25 minutes additional travel time.
• Lanes will begin to open one at a time when overnight detours end, with all lanes restored by 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday mornings, July 20-21, and by 5 a.m. Monday morning, July 22.
Once steel operations for the new Telegraph Road Bridge over I-95 south are complete, crews will move to the I-95 northbound side where work is scheduled for the weekend of July 26, with 30 min traffic stoppages in all lanes after midnight.
As part of the 95 Express Lanes Project, motorists should also expect nightly lane closures, Mondays through Saturdays, and extended HOV lane closures during the day on Saturdays, throughout the summer.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
