St. Louis Road over Goose Creek Bridge rehabilitation underway

Work is underway to rehabilitate the St Louis Road (Route 611) bridge over Goose Creek, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation.

The bridge, located between Rt. 50 and Welbourne Road/Millville Road (Rt. 743), was built in 1969 and averages 3,400 vehicles a day.

The rehabilitation project includes:

• Replacing the concrete beams with steel beams
• Replacing the concrete deck
• Repairing piers

During construction, St Louis Road will be reduced to one lane of alternating traffic at the bridge. Traffic will be controlled by temporary signals.

The $4.3 million St Louis Road over Goose Creek Bridge Rehabilitation Project is financed with federal and state funding, including State of Good Repair funds used for bridges.

The project is scheduled for completion in mid-2025.

Drivers are reminded to use caution when traveling in active work zones. Be alert to new traffic patterns and limit distractions.
