Work will begin on Monday, April 27, 2009 and is expected to continue through October, 2009. Access to the Cub Run and Big Mountain areas will be affected. The low water crossing near Catherine Furnace where Roaring Run empties into Cub Run will be replaced first. While this section is closed, access will be available from Runkles Gap Road, SR 636, in Rockingham County.
The second low water crossing to be replaced is located at the confluence of Cub Run and Pitt Springs. While this section of road is closed, access to Pitt Springs Road will be available via Newport, VA on SR 685 and access to the Cub Run area will be available from Runkles Gap Road, SR 636, in Rockingham County.
