The Virginia Department of Transportation is doing a study on the one-mile segment of Route 200 (Irvington Rd) between Route 688 (James B Jones Memorial Hwy)/Harris Rd and Old Saint Johns Rd/White Pine Dr in Kilmarnock. The public is encouraged to participate.
VDOT is interested in the “potential safety and operational improvements for approximately 1 mile of Route 200 (Irvington Road). The goal of this study is to address any safety, congestion, access management and/or bicycle/pedestrian needs that may be identified along the study corridor or at the study area intersections.”
Some of the questions you will be asked:
- Which of the following safety issues concern you?
- What mobility issues do you typically experience when using the study area?
- When do you typically travel in the study area?
- How often do you travel along the study area?
Susie’s comments
When there was an opportunity to comment, I suggested that VDOT and the TriWay Trail team work together given the overlap as is shown in the image below. There is no sense in making improvements multiple times in a short period.
