AUGUSTA COUNTY, VA (Rocktown Now) — The Park and Ride lot near the intersection of Route 1906 (Lodge Lane) and Route 612 (Laurel Hill Road) in Augusta County is scheduled to be closed Monday, June 1, through Friday, June 5. The closure is for milling, paving and pavement marking as part of an expansion of the commuter lot.

The Park & Ride expansion adds 15 spaces to the facility, which currently accommodates 37 vehicles just off Interstate 81 at Verona. The expansion is part of a project to improve the nearby intersection of Route 612 and Route 901 (Mill Place Parkway).

In July 2025 the Virginia Department of Transportation awarded a $2.3 million contract to B&S Contracting Inc. of Staunton, Va., with a completion date of August 1, 2026.

All work is weather permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
