Update on 12/13 — The work has been postponed due to high winds. No word yet on when it will be rescheduled.
The W&OD Trail will be closed next Tuesday between Carlin Springs Road and the Bluemont Junction Trail due to overhead work on power lines.
The trail will close starting at 5:00 a.m. on Dec. 14, and is expected to reopen the following day.
A trail that runs parallel to the W&OD, on the other side of Four Mile Run, will be available as an alternative route for trail users, according to county parks spokesperson Susan Kalish.
