Work on a VDOT highway needs a VDOT Land Use Permit, and setups follow the Virginia Work Area Protection Manual. VDOT's permit rules keep work from interfering with peak traffic on heavily traveled highways.
Local rules to plan around
- VDOT maintains most roads in Fairfax County, so most jobs need a VDOT Land Use Permit.
- VDOT must approve blocking or detouring traffic before it happens, and requires notice before excavation.
- The Dulles Toll Road and the George Washington Memorial Parkway are not VDOT roads and have their own owners.
Office names, forms and lead times change. Confirm the current rules with the agency before you apply.
