Stafford County is enhancing its transportation infrastructure through a variety of projects that are in different stages of development, including construction, pre-construction, and design. This effort aligns with the strategic goal of creating a multimodal infrastructure system, which was established following community surveys and the 2019 Transportation Bond Referendum.

The Board of Supervisors, in conjunction with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), has initiated a transportation program that has seen an investment exceeding $100 million.
