The Department of Public Works (DPW) secured Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program funds through its partnership with the Virginia Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. This project is a continuation of the work by the Department to use low-cost, systemic, quick build improvements that provide proven immediate safety benefits through changing the built environment.
This project will start this summer and it is expected to be completed by spring 2024, weather permitting. During this phase of the project, the Department will make improvements at the project intersections listed below and will install:
- High visibility crosswalks
- Accessible ramps, and
- Pedestrian countdown signals at locations currently without them
