Virginia Parkway section closed indefinitely
A section of the Blue Ridge Parkway’s Virginia portion that has been closed since September will continue to be closed indefinitely, Parkway officials decided recently.
The section from milepost 106 to milepost 112 near Roanoke was closed Sept. 6 when Federal Highway Administration officials discovered subsurface material settling under the roadway, causing unsafe driving conditions — especially for low-clearance vehicles and motorcyclists.
There is no estimated re-opening date at this time. All road closures are depicted in real time at go.nps.gov/ParkwayRoads.
