Fredericksburg is taking another step forward to become a more walkable community with the recent start of construction off LaFayette Boulevard, which is part of the city’s Twin Lake Drive and Kensington Pedestrian Connector project.
This $2.4 million project includes extending a 10-foot wide paved shared-use path along the north side of Lafayette Boulevard between Twin Lake Drive and St. Paul Street in the City of Fredericksburg. The path will be accessible, with ramps and crosswalks built where the route intersects with Twin Lakes Drive, Springwood Drive, Kensington Place, and St. Paul Street.
The project includes a paved access point to the Virginia Central Railway Trail from the cul-de-sac of Springwood Drive, and a bike repair station will be installed at Alum Spring Park.

Grant may look big in pictures, but he’s a small and lovable hound mix, weighing just 23 pounds. This sweet pup is currently in short-term foster care, but he’s searching for a permanent home where he can thrive.
Grant does well with other dogs but could be happy as the only pet in a home as long as he has human companionship. While he craves love and affection—his tail wags whenever someone pays him attention—he’s still timid, so a home with children ages eight and up would be the best fit.
Right now, the shelter is at capacity, and dogs like Grant urgently need loving homes. Please help us spread the word about this adorable pup and give him the forever home he deserves.
