Starting late Monday, all traffic on Route 30/33 will be intermittently stopped overnight for bridge maintenance on the Eltham Bridge crossing the Pawmunkey River between the Town of West Point and New Kent County. Traffic will be stopped for a minimum of four 15-minute intervals between 9 p.m. Monday and 5 a.m. Tuesday. Traffic will be cleared between each full traffic stop. If work cannot be completed on those days, the intermittent traffic stops will be rescheduled to occur between 9 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 17, and 5 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 18.
