Thank you for your patience as crews work to improve City streets.

🚧 Emergency Utility Repair – Traffic Impact
During milling operations, crews discovered a utility pipe requiring immediate replacement.
As a result, Rife Road / 16th Street between Chestnut Avenue and Pine Avenue is closed to through traffic until further notice.
✅ Local traffic will still be permitted to access homes and businesses within the affected area.
We appreciate everyone's patience as crews complete this necessary repair. Additional updates will be provided as information becomes available.
Please use caution in the work zone and follow all posted traffic control signs.

🚧 Main Street Reopens Near Waynesboro High School
Good news! Main Street in front of Waynesboro High School has reopened to normal traffic as of 8:45 a.m.
The temporary closure allowed crews to complete several major utility crossings needed to support the new classroom addition and gymnasium project. Completing this work now helps reduce impacts to the public as the project continues.
We appreciate the patience and cooperation of residents, businesses, customers, and motorists during the closure, as well as the efforts of the contractor and project partners who worked to complete this phase safely and efficiently.
Construction activities will continue in the area. Please remain alert for construction vehicles, equipment, and workers as work progresses.
Thank you for your support of this important school improvement project.

🚧 City of Waynesboro Milling & Paving Schedule 🚧
The City of Waynesboro's paving contractor is scheduled to perform milling and paving operations on multiple streets throughout the City from June 4–15, 2026.
This work represents 27 of the 69 locations identified for improvement as part of the City's 2026 paving program. Additional streets will be scheduled as work progresses through the paving season.
Residents and businesses located within active work areas should plan ahead:
🚗 Parking
• Move vehicles before work begins each day.
• Use off-street parking or park outside active work zones.
• Follow all temporary "No Parking" signs posted by the contractor.
🚧 Access
• Milling operations generally create minimal access impacts. Temporary access restrictions may occur while equipment is actively working in a specific area, but interruptions are typically short in duration.
• Paving operations may result in longer temporary access restrictions while fresh asphalt is placed and allowed to cool.
• Contractors work to maintain access to homes and businesses whenever possible and restore access as quickly as conditions allow.

⚠️ TRAFFIC IMPACT UPDATE – WAYNESBORO HIGH SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION PROJECT ⚠️
Due to continued rain and wet pavement conditions, the roadway re-striping work associated with the Waynesboro High School construction project has been delayed.
At this time, the temporary traffic pattern changes and potential road closures previously expected along Main Street between Poplar Avenue and New Hope Road will likely shift to Tuesday and Wednesday of next week (May 26 & 27, 2026), weather permitting.
Crews require dry pavement conditions for roadway striping to properly adhere and cure safely.
Once work begins, motorists should continue to expect:
🚧 Temporary road closures and lane shifts
🚧 Changing traffic patterns
🚧 Delays and extra travel time in the area
🚧 Construction vehicles entering and exiting the site
🚧 Flaggers, signage, and temporary lane markings
These traffic pattern changes are part of the approximately 18-month Waynesboro High School construction project and are being implemented to help provide safe space for construction operations, material deliveries, and future scaffolding work.
The City appreciates the public’s patience and understanding as crews work safely and weather conditions are monitored. Additional updates will be provided as scheduling is finalized.
