Ground Broken For Road Extension Near Commuter Lot In Woodbridge
WOODBRIDGE, VA — Prince William County officials held a groundbreaking last Friday for a road extension project that seeks to address congestion and improve convenience. The Summit School Road project will add a new 0.8-mile segment on Summit School Road, connecting it with Telegraph Road and the Horner Road Commuter Lot. It will have four lanes, a median, five-foot sidewalk and shared-use path. In addition, 57 new parking spaces will be added to the Horner Road Commuter lot.Officials believe the project will east congestion on Minnieville Road, a major route between mid-county to the eastern county. "A lot of what we talked about here in the county over the last few years is traffic safety, meeting our need for human-centric [travel], as opposed to being auto-centric," said Occoquan District Supervisor Kenny Boddye at the groundbreaking. "This project will hit a lot of the things we need to do in this area, from what you see here today to a real hub of the Occoquan District and Prince William County."The $40 million project received full funding from the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority, which allocates regional transportation funds."This project will improve the quality of life for residents not only in Prince William County, but in neighboring counties, because what we know is that when we improve access and provide modal options, it helps all of us," said Northern Virginia Transportation Authority CEO Monica Backmon at the groundbreaking. "When people do not have to spend time in their cars, getting frustrated, that is time that they can on doing other things."The article Ground Broken For Road Extension Near Commuter Lot In Woodbridge appeared first on Woodbridge, VA Patch.
