Studies

What's Being Done

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) have initiated a study of the Interstate 95 (I-95) corridor between Route 17 and Route 3 in Fredericksburg.

The purpose of this study is to analyze impacts of proposed access and capacity improvements and connector road to I-95 between Route 17 and Route 3.

An Environmental Assessment (EA) is being prepared for the project in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This EA will build upon the I-95 Planning Level Access Study and Interchange Justification report recently completed by the Fredericksburg Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and George Washington Toll Authority.  This link will take you to the planning level analysis.

Through the NEPA process, the project team, using input from the public and from various state and federal agencies:

• Examines transportation problems such as road capacity, mobility and access
  
• Develops solutions to those problems
  
• Evaluates the impacts of the solutions
