The VIrginia Department of Transportation and its contractor, Corman Construction, Inc., are replacing an 88-year-old bridge on Route 1 over Aquia Creek to improve the infrastructure on this primary road. Part of the project involves moving a nearby water line.

The $5.5 million bridge project began in December and is scheduled to be finished in August 2015.
