An overpass was built to accommodate traffic on Park Street and Route 250A was completed the following year. When I-64 south of town opened in 1970, it diverted much of the east-west through traffic. The 250 bypass remains a popular road with local commuters. #FBF #VDOT Charlottesville, Virginia | Virginia Department of Transportation | Facebook

Be mindful and alert of this change, as many vehicles may try to change lanes after the turn to reach the interstate. Also, pay attention to the traffic lights (YELLOW means SLOW down...not SPEED up). Vehicles traveling through the red light, as seen in this video, contribute to this intersection's high crash rate. | Charlotte County Sheriff's Office | Facebook
