WOODBRIDGE, Va. — A local State Delegate has made his case to sufficiently fund the widening of a portion U.S. 1 in Woodbridge.
Mark Dudenhefer, R-Stafford, Woodbridge, penned a letter to Virginia Transportation Secretary Sean T. Connaughton to provide “sufficient funding” for widening the major thoroughfare from Featherstone Road to Mary’s Way, from a four-lane to a six-lane road. Prince William County transportation officials estimate that project will cost $53 million.
Another project, the effort to widen U.S. 1 between Mary’s Way and the Occoquan River to six lanes has already been greenlit by the state. And, widening at U.S. 1 to Featherstone Road is already on a list of preferred projects by the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority, a group of elected officials that will decide where to place some $190 million of new transportation revenues generated by higher sales taxes starting July 1 as part of the Virginia’s transportation reform passed in February.
“This is vital step toward seeing the real improvements need for the Second District and the region,” stated Dudenhefer in his letter.
Further south on U.S. 1 in Woodbridge, work to widen another portion of U.S. 1 in Woodbridge from four to six lanes, from Neabsco Creek to Featherstone Road, has already begun. A $38 million contract was awarded last year to Lane Construction Corporation to widen the road from what a bridge that crosses Neabsco Creek that’s already six-lanes wide, to Featherstone Road.
