After running into problems with utility lines, the closure of Catoctin Circle will be extended through Thursday, Aug. 22.
The Town of Leesburg Public Works Department on Aug. 19 began the project to replace a storm drainage pipe that runs under Catoctin Circle SW, just north of the W&OD Trail.
Catoctin was closed for the project and will remain closed to all traffic from Dry Mill Road SW to Rosemeade Place SW. Detour signs are in place to direct traffic to alternate routes.
