Route 1 Widening Plans Move Forward In Fairfax County

A formal endorsement was made by Fairfax County board of supervisors this week following which a major widening of route 1 just north of Fort Belvoir moved forward. The board supported the plans of Virginia Department of Transportation plans to widen 3.1 miles of Richmond Highway between Jeff Todd Way/Mr. Vernon Memorial Highway and Sherwood Hall Lane near Costco. According to the plans, the road will be widened from four lanes to six lanes.

As per wtop.com, "In addition to the added lanes and intersection widenings, the project is set to leave room for lanes for a new bus rapid transit line scheduled to be built by Fairfax County in the coming years. Supervisors also requested two-way protected bike lanes on each side of the highway — to complement new separate sidewalk — and that bridges for the bus line be fully constructed now to avoid the need for disruptions later. They also supported two proposed underpasses so people do not need to cross the road and risk collisions with cars. Plans for the expansion and the increased development planned around the bus rapid transit stops, date back 25 years."
