Albemarle County is issuing an important traffic announcement regarding an upcoming partial closure of Crozet Avenue. 

Crozet Avenue will be partially closed to traffic on Thursday, July 11 from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm between the intersections with Jarman’s Gap Road and Library Avenue  to allow for realignment of a fiber optic cable that runs under Crozet Avenue.   (See Map below.)

Traffic on Crozet Avenue will be reduced to one lane so motorists should expect the possibility of delays between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM on Thursday, July 11, 2013.

This realignment is necessary to accommodate storm water work related to construction of the new Crozet Library.  The Virginia Department of Transportation is overseeing traffic management during the construction period.  The realignment is scheduled to be completed by the end of the day on July 11 but could be impacted in the event of inclement weather.

We regret the inconvenience and encourage all motorists to plan ahead to minimize any disruption that may be caused by this closure.
