Two weeks.
(From the email I received on 2 March 2026)
I asked VDOT when the roundabout would be open. They are always so responsive.
We plan to open the Route 240/250 Roundabout and remove the Route 680 detour in the second week of March, work will continue through the early summer to complete the roundabout median islands.
Crossing fingers, and building patience for those who don’t understand roundabouts!
Also, Albemarle is going to try again for the Old Trail/250 roundabout
US 250 & Old Trail Roundabout – This project will construct a roundabout at the intersection of US 250 (Rockfish Gap Turnpike) at Old Trail Drive with crosswalks and pedestrian connections
