Lynchburg Interchange Gets Major Upgrade | Roanoke News

Lynchburg’s Candlers Mountain Road interchange is getting a $64 million upgrade to fix traffic chaos and boost safety—construction starts this September, wraps in spring 2029. The VDOT says the old design can’t handle city growth, so they’re raising the bridge, ditching two south-side ramps, and widening lanes. Locals know this spot’s a rush-hour nightmare, especially with college crowds—but officials promise smoother, safer travel long-term, even if it means some temporary headaches.
