FAIRFAX COUNTY, VA -- A contractor will be replacing Seven Corners traffic signal equipment between Thursday at 9 p.m. and Friday at 5 a.m., weather permitting. Eight Fairfax County Police officers will be on site to help with traffic, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation.

For safety reasons, drivers entering the intersection from westbound Route 50 will not be allowed to make a left turn at the signal during the timeframe, from 9 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Friday, according to a VDOT spokesman. Those wishing to make a left turn will have to turn right onto Route 7 (whether they’re heading east or west on Route 7), then make a U-turn at the next intersection.
