W&OD Trail — Through February 2025: Dominion Energy replacing electric transmission wires

Dominion Energy will replace the conductor, or wires, on the electric transmission line above the W&OD Trail between Mill St NE in the Town of Vienna and Sandburg St in Dunn Loring (Mile Markers 9-12). Trail users can expect temporary traffic stops and detours.

  • July 2024-November 2024: Expect stops up to 15 minutes while crews prepare for wire replacement. Flaggers will control traffic.
  • As part of this work, Dominion Energy will remove shrubs and trees from the Dominion Energy easement along the W&OD Trail to reestablish the full width of the right of way corridor and provide sufficient clearance for the transmission line.
  • November 2024-January 2025: Expect stops up to 15 minutes while crews complete the project. Flaggers will control traffic.
