VDOT reports winter road maintenance; bus-loop resurfacing scheduled in 2026
Summary
A VDOT residency official told the board crews are regrading dirt roads, addressing drainage at a high-school bus loop and planning resurfacing of the Ernst high-school bus loop in 2026. Ongoing shoulder repairs on several county routes were also described.
A representative from VDOT's residency office updated the board on routine winter maintenance and near-term projects. Crews have been regrading and adding stone to dirt roads across the county and performing intermittent maintenance while also handling snow responsibilities.
The presenter said maintenance crews temporarily addressed a low spot on a high-school bus loop to prevent ponding and freezing and that a full resurfacing of the Ernst high-school bus loop is planned for 2026. He also listed ongoing shoulder repairs on Routes 616, 604, 609 and 681 and said paving and overlay work will proceed as scheduling and state maintenance responsibilities allow.
Board members thanked maintenance crews for the snow response and asked a few follow-up questions about timelines and coordination with state maintenance responsibilities.
