Good morning, Hampton.

Hampton NAACP and First Baptist Church of Hampton are hosting Soul to the Polls today—community leaders will march from the church at 12:30 p.m. to the Registrar’s Office and free food, music and fun will follow the voting period from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.—voter registration ends October 24th and early in-person voting concludes November 1st.

Starting today, drivers going east on Victory Boulevard will see a new traffic pattern that shifts lanes three feet left between George Washington Memorial Highway and Hampton Highway to create an additional eastbound lane; the right lane will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily until spring when crews add a temporary concrete barrier (part of the widening project).
