PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. -- When the Occoquan District Supervisor asked state officials to consider a small fix to ease a part of the region's Interstate 95 traffic burden, she didn't like the answer she received.
Ruth Anderson asked Virginia's Commonwealth Transportation Board to consider extending a fourth travel lane on Interstate 95 from the Occoquan River south to Prince William Parkway. After extending the 4th lane from Newington in Fairfax County south to the river in 2011, the Virginia Department of Transportation created a heavy bottleneck at the lane's terminus at the busy Route 123/I-95 interchange.
Anderson stated that "at a minimum" a fourth lane extended south to the Parkway is a sensible solution as the six-lane road, and its highway interchange is better equipped than the Route 123 junction to handle more traffic. Officials in Prince William said they've long asked the state to widen the road to four travel lanes on the north and southbound sides through nearly the entire stretch of I-95 in Prince William County, from Occoquan to Dumfries.
