The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) now says it’s enhancing training for inspectors and prioritizing inspection of as many as 10,000 guardrails statewide after complaints from a safety advocate. Recently, VDOT confirmed it had replaced 18 guardrail end terminals on Interstate 81 between Bristol and Marion, Virginia. Several safety complaints lead VDOT to replace rusted guardrail terminals on I-81 near Bristol.The replacements came after an East Tennessee highway safety advocate spotted terminals with significant rust and metal loss.
