HARRISONBURG, Va – Drivers should be aware that Water Street is currently closed to through traffic between Liberty and High streets due to potential maintenance activities on the wooden trestle bridge over the Norfolk Southern Railroad line.

Harrisonburg Public Works noticed potentially necessary work, and out of an abundance of caution informed Norfolk Southern so they could assess if repairs were needed. Please direct all questions regarding bridge maintenance efforts to Norfolk Southern.

Harrisonburg Public Works will place message boards to communicate the closure. The street will still be open to pedestrian traffic only. Pedestrians are asked to use caution when traveling around the work zone. This section of Water Street will be closed until maintenance work is complete.
