Interchange in virginia. Its where route 15 meets i66 in haymarket. Derrick, what do drivers need to know at this point . Reporter well, take a look. Behold the diverging diamond interchange. This is an innovation is traffic patterns and traffic moving around. And what it does, it shifts vehicles from one side of the road to the other. The opposite side of the road without having a left turn or sharp turn like you would normally have. Now, there are two lights at either end of this infrastructure, this structure and that actually helps to move traffic through. Despite it being a light, they say youll spend less time than at a normal type of intersection. Now, v. D. O. T. Said this is going to be finished in the summer of 2017. They opened it this morning a few minutes ago. One lane will remain closed so they can put some signs up. Infrastructure on the side. A multiuse path on either side and some drainage issues. All should be done by 2017. The easier commute and getaround here with 15 and 66 meet. Back to you. Derrick, thanks so much. Now to a tragedy in mclean this morning.
