VDOT Plans for Harrisonburg and Surrounding Areas


VDOT Plans for Harrisonburg and Surrounding Areas
By Scott Rogers • July 5, 2017
We are likely to see changes to Exit 245 and 247 on Interstate 81 in the forthcoming years, as per the Commonwealth Transportatio Board's approval of VDOT's Six-Year Road Improvement Plan last month. A few notes from the June 24, 2017 Daily News Record article.... In the city, VDOT plans to realign the northbound Exit 245 off-ramp with Forest Hill Road and move the ramp to merge onto I-81 northbound from eastbound U.S. 33 at Exit 247 to the other side of the road and install a traffic light. One of the city projects will improve the intersection of South Main Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. A right- turn lane will be added from northbound Main Street onto MLK, signals will be reconstructed, left- turn lanes will be built from MLK onto Mason Street in both directions and signals will be replaced at that intersection. The plan also includes the project to widen Erickson Avenue to four lanes with a center-turn lane, bike lanes and sidewalks from just west of South High Street to the city limits near Garbers Church Road.
