Reminder: Permanent Closure of 32nd Street Set for Jan. 29

The permanent closure of 32nd Street between Route 1 and South Eads Street has been approved by the Virginia Department of Transportation and is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 29. The street closure is part of the ART Bus Facility construction project.

Closing the street will allow for building expansion and additional bus parking spaces and will improve the efficiency and flow of the new facility. The street closure was approved by the County Board in May 2015.
