ALBEMARLE COUNTY, VA (CVILLE RIGHT NOW) – Mint Springs Valley Park is closed due to damage to the roadway near the entrance caused by severe weather and flooding. No entry, by any means, is permitted at this time, with no estimated reopening date as staff assess the extent of the repairs needed. This location is different from the culvert damaged by Tropical Storm Debby that occurred in August.
