The Board of Supervisors is urging the Virginia Department of Transportation to include a pedestrian path underneath a new bridge built to carry Interstate 95 traffic over Route 17.
Why it matters: A pedestrian path would allow people who live across the six-lane Route 17 to walk from their neighborhood in Olde Forge across the road to a shopping center anchored by a Target Store.
- Supervisors say that’s where many of them can’t afford a car shop, as well as work.
A major project to expand the intersection that includes three new bridges and new southbound lanes on I-95, doesn’t include the pedestrian improvements.
