RICHMOND, Va. – The City of Richmond Department of Public Works will be working at the intersection of Ladies Mile Road and North Avenue to remove traffic signal poles.

In an effort to keep the appropriate level of traffic control at the intersection of Ladies Mile Road and North Avenue for the safety of all users regardless of age and ability, the Department will also be installing all-way stop controls.

Beginning Monday, July 31, 2023, motorists and pedestrians at this intersection will notice the following:

• The traffic control signals will be switched to an “all red” flash pattern.  New stop signs will be installed at the same time on all approaches.
• After a week, the traffic signal poles will be removed. The Department expects this work to begin the week of 8/7/2023, depending on the weather. After the poles are safely removed,  the all-way stop control will govern all users at the intersection.

Please give our construction workers extra space and slow down when you see orange cones in the work zones.
