The Rappahannock River Crossing Pathway project is currently in the data-gathering phase, with consultants for the Fredericksburg Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (FAMPO) immersed in collecting information from jurisdictions and preparing for stakeholder meetings later this month.
Officials are exploring the possibility of building the bridge as an extension of Commerce Parkway, just off Route 17 in south Stafford County. The bridge would cross the Rappahannock River and could connect to Gordon Shelton Boulevard, near Virginia Credit Union Stadium, where the FredNats play.
The project aims to alleviate local street congestion by establishing a new connection between Fredericksburg and Stafford, upstream from existing bridges carrying Interstate 95 over the Rappahannock River.
