The Van Buren Road project in Prince William County has received approval from the Board of Supervisors. The project will build a four-lane road with a sidewalk on one side and a pedestrian path on the other, connecting Dumfries Road to Cardinal Drive, aiming to address traffic congestion and improve mobility in the area.
Mary Ankers of the Prince William County Public Works office presented the project, stating, "It will provide some congestion relief, enhanced mobility, include pedestrian facilities, and improve safety."
The project has spent $1.3 million on environmental documentation and will move forward with $8 million allocated for design funding. Ankers noted, "We do not have money for right-of-way, utilities, or construction at this time. We really don't have a good schedule set for this."
