The Virginia Department of Transportation plans to test the High-Rise Bridge on Thursday morning.
The test is set for 10 a.m. so crews can inspect electrical repairs done after a power outage caused by last week’s nor’easter, a VDOT news release said.
The test was scheduled for a time that would avoid rush hours, according to the release.
