Roundups
Final Surface Paving for Route 50
<bt>Shirley Contracting began a final phase of the Route 50
project on Monday, May 11, that will have an impact on evening
traffic on Route 50 for about a month. The pavement on the
ground on Route 50 is not the final surface for the road. Shirley
Contracting will begin final surface paving and new permanent
striping on both eastbound and westbound Route 50 between
Poland Road and the Cub Run Bridge (bridge is located just east
of Pleasant Valley Fairfax). Weather permitting, the work is sched-
uled to be finished by June 5.
Traffic will be reduced to one lane between the hours of 7 p.m.
to 5:30 a.m., which could cause delays during these hours. Ac-
cess to or from any of the side streets or entrances coming off of
Route 50 will remain open.
Meeting on I-66 Project
The Virginia Department of Transportation, in partnership with
the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation, will
provide a project update and revised preliminary design concepts
for the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project. Hosted by Su-
pervisor Michael Frey (R-Sully), the community meeting will be
held Monday, May 18, 6:30-9 p.m. at the Ormond Stone Middle
School cafeteria.
