VDOT Wants to Widen Portion of Courthouse Road to 4 Lanes

STAFFORD, Va. — The public will have a chance to hear a proposal to widen Courthouse Road in Stafford County west of Interstate 95.

The meeting takes place Wednesday, Feb. 20 from 5 to 8 p.m. Plans from the Virginia Department of Transportation include widening the road from two to four lanes between Cedar Lane and Winding Creek Road. The widening would make way for a traffic headed in and out of the new Embry Mill housing development, and comes as the transportation agency is looking to improve the interchange at I-95.
