Virginia Department of Transportation
–
The Virginia Department of Transportation is the agency of state government responsible for transportation in the state of Virginia in the United States. Headquartered at the Virginia Department of Highways Building in Downtown Richmond, VDOT is responsible for building, maintaining and it is overseen by the Commonwealth Transportation Board, which has the power to fund airports, seaports, rail and public transportation. VDOTs revised annual budget for Fiscal Year 2017 is $5.35 billion, VDOT has a workforce of about 7,500 full-time employees. Snow Removal- VDOT is responsible for removing snow along the roads of Virginia. VDOT operates and maintains, Roads- VDOTs largest responsibility is the maintenance of roads, filling potholes, storm drain cleaning, water drainage, guard rail replacement, bridge work, tree and trash removal, as well as the maintenance of signs and traffic lights. Smaller portions of the budget are directed to address the needs and requirements of service, support to other agencies, administration. VDOT provides the Virginia 511 service, which may be accessed by the 511 telephone number, in May 2012, VDOT introduced the Virginia 511 smartphone apps for Apple and Android devices. The Virginia 511 system provides traffic cameras, real-time road and traffic conditions, trip planning, weather information, drivers complained that people who needed to use the restroom would have nowhere to go. In January 2010, governor Bob McDonnell announced that he would all of the closed rest areas as part of his campaign promises. The state is using an adopt a rest stop program, pulling 3 million dollars from the maintenance fund. They all reopened on April 17,2010, spontaneous roadside memorials, often in the form of white crosses, Stars of David, bouquets of flowers, and photos of the dead, have been placed along roads at the scenes of fatal accidents. As of July 1,2003, Virginia law has banned these memorials, Transportation officials have deemed them a threat to the safety of motorists. Virginia law §33. 1-206.1 prohibits any person from installing a memorial on any highway controlled by the VDOT without a permit, VDOT will install a roadside memorial sign, normally for a period of two years. The sign may not deviate from the standard roadside memorial sign specifications, the cost must by paid by the person requesting the sign. Not everyone agrees with the new program, vowing to ignore the program, Del. Robert G. Marshall, whose son was killed in an auto accident along Interstate 81 in November 2001, said, This is the bureaucratization of love. I intend to put a cross up for my son, by marking an accident site, survivors create a living memory of this persons life, said Donna Schuurman, president of Association for Death Education and Counseling. Americans have swept the grieving process under the rug, and now its popping up in ways that few expected—and that some dont like. They provided drivers with a faster and more reliable travel option, buses, carpools, motorcycles and emergency vehicles will be able to use the HOT lanes for free while drivers with fewer than three occupants can use the HOT lanes by paying a toll

Special routes of U.S. Route 17
–
A total of at least twenty-three special routes of U. S. Route 17 have existed. US 17-92 Truck is a route for US 17-92 in northern Kissimmee, Florida, following John Young Parkway. It was signed in about 2011 when the single-point urban interchange at John Young, until 1999, a truck bypass was signed around Downtown Kissimmee. The route existed from sometime during the 1980s until 1999, when US 17-92 itself was rerouted to bypass downtown Kissimmee, US 17-92 Truck is designated to divert overheight truck traffic away from a low railroad bridge that carries the SunRail rail line over US 17-92 in southern Maitland. The route follows State Road 423, Interstate 4, and State Road 414 in Winter Park, Florida and it formerly used Wymore Road and Lake Avenue instead of I-4 and SR414. U. S. Route 17 Alternate is a route of U. S. Route 17 in South Carolina that runs between Pocotaligo and Georgetown. It is 123.4 miles long and has been four-laned in various segments since 1970, U. S. Route 17 Business, also known as Kings Highway, was established by 1967 when mainline US17 was bypassed west of Murrells Inlet. In 1981, it was extended north to near Briarcliffe Acres, the 22. 8-mile business loop connects, Murrells Inlet, Garden City, Surfside Beach, and Myrtle Beach. The road is also a route during the Bi-Lo Marathon weekend, miles 2-6. U. S. Route 17 Business was established in 1991 after the completion of the Shallotte Bypass, the business loop is 3. 8-mile in length and has the street name Main Street for its entire length. The middle segment is concurrent with NC130, which splits from Business US17 in the north to travel to Whiteville. The entire route is in Shallotte, Brunswick County, U. S. Route 17 Business was established in 1992 after the completion of the Bolivia Bypass. The business route follows the old alignment of US17 through Bolivia and this 7. 5-mile route is also called the Old Ocean Highway and passes through the center of Bolivia near its northern terminus. The entire route is in Brunswick County, U. S. Route 17 Business is a 13. 0-mile business route through Wilmington. US17 Bus was established in 1971, two years after US17 was realigned onto new routing, it traversed 1.8 miles along 3rd and Market Streets, between Dawson/Wooster and 16th/17th Streets. Market Street was part of the alignment, but goes south instead of north along 3rd Street to meetup with US17. In 1979, AASHTO officially recognized US17 Bus, in 2005, AASHTO approved the US17 Bus extension upon completion of and realignment of US17 along the Wilmington bypass. US17 Bus shares brief concurrency with US76 and US421 and it is also part of the Cape Fear Historic Byway, which features scenic urban areas, colonial-era streets, the USS North Carolina battleship and the city parks

Chesapeake, Virginia
–
Chesapeake is an independent city located in the U. S. commonwealth of Virginia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 222,209, in 2013, Chesapeake is included in the Virginia Beach–Norfolk–Newport News, VA–NC MSA. Chesapeake is the second-largest city by area in the Commonwealth of Virginia. It has miles of waterfront industrial, commercial and residential property, in 2011, Chesapeake was named the 21st best city in America by Bloomberg Businessweek. In 1963, the new independent city of Chesapeake was created when the independent city of South Norfolk consolidated with Norfolk County. The consolidation was approved and the new name selected by the voters of each community by referendum, formed in 1691 in the Virginia Colony, Norfolk County had originally included essentially all the area which became the towns and later cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth, and South Norfolk. Its area was reduced after 1871 as these cities added territory through annexations, becoming an independent city was a method for the former county to stabilize borders with neighbors, as cities could not annex territory from each other. The relatively small city of South Norfolk had become a town within Norfolk County in 1919. Its residents wanted to make a change to put their jurisdiction on an equal footing in other aspects with the much larger cities of Norfolk. The consolidation that resulted in the city of Chesapeake was part of a wave of changes in the structure of government in southeastern Virginia which took place between 1952 and 1975. The Chesapeake region was among the first areas settled in the colonial era. Beginning in the late 1980s and accelerating in the 1990s, however, Chesapeake saw significant growth, attracting numerous and this explosive growth quickly led to strains on the municipal infrastructure, ranging from intrusion of saltwater into the citys water supply to congested roads and schools. Chesapeake made national headlines in 2003 when, under a change of venue. A jury convicted him of murder but spared him a death sentence, it chose a sentence of life in prison without parole for the young man. A jury in neighboring Virginia Beach convicted his older partner John Allen Muhammad, Chesapeake is located at 36°46′2″N 76°17′14″W. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has an area of 351 square miles. The northeastern part of the Great Dismal Swamp is located in Chesapeake, Chesapeake is one of the larger cities in Virginia and the nation in terms of land area. This poses challenges to city leaders in supporting infrastructure to serve this area, in addition, the city has many historically and geographically distinct communities

U.S. Route 17 in Virginia
–
U. S. Route 17 is a part of the U. S. Highway System that runs from Punta Gorda, Florida to Winchester, Virginia. In Virginia, the U. S. Highway runs 255.83 miles from the North Carolina state line in Chesapeake north to its terminus at US11, US50. US17 is a highway in the eastern half of Virginia. The U. S. Highway connects the Albemarle Region of North Carolina with the Hampton Roads metropolitan area, within the urban area, US17 passes through the South Hampton Roads cities of Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Suffolk and the Virginia Peninsula city of Newport News. Between Yorktown and Fredericksburg, the U. S. Highway serves as the highway of the Middle Peninsula. The U. S. Highway heads north through the city of Chesapeake as George Washington Highway, US17 meets the southern end of SR166 just north of the bridge. US17 expands to a divided highway again at its intersection with SR190. US17 becomes concurrent with I-64 in the direction of Suffolk, the four-lane freeway crosses the Southern Branch on the High Rise Bridge. I-64 and US17 diverge at an interchange with George Washington Highway. I-64 continues west toward its junction with I-664 at Bowers Hill while US17 heads north on the divided highway. US17 crosses over Norfolk Southern Railways Norfolk District and intersects Military Highway, the U. S. Highway continues as a three-lane road with center turn lane to the north end of SR196, where the highway becomes five lanes and crosses St. Julian Creek. US17 enters the city of Portsmouth at its crossing of another Norfolk Southern rail line. The highway becomes a divided highway at SR239. At Paradise Creek, SR141 continues along George Washington Highway while US17 turns northwest onto Frederick Boulevard, US17 has another at-grade railroad crossing before the highway intersects SR337 Alternate. Just north of its intersection with US58, US17 turns west onto High Street. The four-lane undivided highway crosses the Western Branch Elizabeth River on the Churchland Bridge, US17 becomes a divided highway again in the community of Churchland, where the highway intersects another rail line between its intersections with Churchland Boulevard. The U. S. Highway briefly passes through Chesapeake again, US17 meets the southern end of SR135 and crosses another rail line. The highway has a interchange with I-664 just south of the Interstates interchange with SR164

Virginia State Route 168
–
State Route 168 is a primary state highway in the South Hampton Roads region of the U. S. state of Virginia. It runs from the border with North Carolina through the independent cities of Chesapeake, SR168 consists of three sections with different characteristics. From I-64 north into downtown Norfolk, SR168 is a local road, SR168 was originally constructed in the 1930s on the north side of Hampton Roads as Merrimack Trail, mainly as a bypass of U. S. Route 60 from Newport News past Williamsburg. It was extended across Hampton Roads in the mid-1940s, but did not move onto its current alignment to North Carolina until 1957, as the new freeway opened past Williamsburg, SR168 was shifted to it, it was truncated to its current extent around 1980. The SR168 designation was applied in the 1933 renumbering to three roadways, State Route 529, State Route 532, and State Route 533. Another piece, from Hampton east on Pembroke Avenue towards Buckroe Beach, was added to the highway system in 1932. In the 1930s, SR168 was extended northwest to State Route 53 (now State Route 30 near Barhamsville and it intersected U. S. Route 60 at Andersons Corner, near Toano in James City County. Route 168 was part of a system of state-funded highway improvements after World War II which preceded the federally funded Interstate Highway System in Virginia, in Chesapeake, the route originally ran along Battlefield Boulevard. This arterial is now bypassed by several roads, the Chesapeake Expressway, the Great Bridge Bypass, from the north end of the Oak Grove Connector, Route 168 overlaps Interstate 64 until it rejoins Battlefield Boulevard. The sections of the boulevard bypassed by the roads are now designated State Route 168 Business. When it first opened to traffic on November 1,1957, the Route 168 signage and tolls were both removed when the crossing was expanded in 1976 as part of the federally funded Interstate 64 improvements, which included four-laning the crossing. Small portions of the roadway on the Peninsula originally signed at SR168 became portions of State Route 30 and Interstate 64. However, most of it from Exit 238 in I-64 east was redesignated as State Route 143, after Interstate 64 was completed on the Peninsula, both Routes 60 and 143 with many at-grade intersections and businesses became more major conduits for local traffic than through-traffic routes. Built to freeway standards, this expressway travels from U. S, the one toll plaza is located near Indian Creek Road. Construction began in 1999 and the fully opened in 2001. Tolls for a 2-axle passenger vehicle are now $8.00 during weekends between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and $3.00 at all other times, State Route 168 Business is a 14. 40-mile business route of SR168. The entire length is known as Battlefield Boulevard. This was originally a part of SR168 before the Chesapeake Expressway was completed and this highway is often used to avoid the toll on the main expressway -- drivers travelling North make a left turn at VA168 Business, then enter the expressway at Hillcrest Parkway

U.S. Route 58
–
U. S. Route 58 is an east–west U. S. Highway that runs for 508 miles from U. S. Route 25E just northwest of Harrogate, Tennessee, to U. S. Route 60 in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Until 1996, when the Cumberland Gap Tunnel opened, US58 ran only inside the commonwealth of Virginia and it was then extended southwest along a short piece of former US 25E, which no longer enters Virginia, to end at the new alignment in Tennessee. State Route 383 is overlaid on U. S. Route 58 in Tennessee, U. S. Route 58 is the longest numbered route in Virginia. US58 begins at an interchange with US 25E, just south of the Cumberland Gap Tunnel. The route travels northeast through the outskirts of Cumberland Gap before crossing into Virginia, US58 in Tennessee carries the designation State Route 383. US58 enters Virginia and travels east to Jonesville, where Alternate US58 branches off and travels to the north. East of Jonesville, US58 intersects US421, and the two routes stay concurrent through Duffield, Gate City, Weber City, and Bristol, where US58 begins a concurrency with Interstate 81. The two routes stay concurrent until I-81 exit 19 in Abingdon, where US58 resumes its eastward journey close to the Virginia–North Carolina state line, the route is signed as the J. E. B. Stuart Highway and the A. L. Philpott Memorial Highway, much of the highway through the region features hairpin turns, steep grades, and load-zoned bridges. US58 begins a concurrency with US221 in Independence, approaching Danville, US58 once again follows an expressway bypass to the south of the city, while a business route enters the city itself. The southeastern half of this bypass is shared with US29, east of Danville, US29 continues north, while US58 picks up US360 and resumes its eastward journey. The routes stay cosigned until South Boston, where US360 resumes a northerly route to Richmond, while US58 travels eastward to Clarksville. The route crosses US1 and Interstate 85 in South Hill, near Franklin, an expressway bypass carries US58 south of the city, while a business route enters the city. A bypass also carries traffic around Suffolk, where US58 begins concurrencies with US13, the three US routes stay merged until an intersection with the Hampton Roads Beltway at the confluence of Interstate 64, Interstate 264, and Interstate 664. US58 travels inside the beltway and through Portsmouth and into Norfolk via the Midtown Tunnel, the route crosses I-64 once again, and continues to Virginia Beach, roughly paralleling I-264 to its south. Much of the section of US58 is part of The Crooked Road. An alternate route of US58, known as U. S. Route 58 Alternate, splits from the route in Abingdon, Virginia. From there, US58 Alt. travels in a direction through Norton, Big Stone Gap

Norfolk, Virginia
–
Norfolk is an independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States. At the 2010 census, the population was 242,803, in 2015, Norfolk is located at the core of the Hampton Roads metropolitan area, named for the large natural harbor of the same name located at the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. It is one of nine cities and seven counties that constitute the Hampton Roads metro area, officially known as the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, the city is bordered to the west by the Elizabeth River and to the north by the Chesapeake Bay. It also shares borders with the independent cities of Chesapeake to its south. Norfolk is one of the oldest cities in Hampton Roads, and is considered to be the historic, urban, financial, the city has a long history as a strategic military and transportation point. The largest Navy base in the world, Naval Station Norfolk, is located in Norfolk along with one of NATOs two Strategic Command headquarters. As the city is bordered by multiple bodies of water, Norfolk has many miles of riverfront and bayfront property, including beaches on the Chesapeake Bay. It is linked to its neighbors by a network of Interstate highways, bridges, tunnels. In 1619, the Governor of the Virginia Colony, Sir George Yeardley incorporated four jurisdictions, termed citties and these formed the basis for colonial representative government in the newly minted House of Burgesses. What would become Norfolk was put under the Elizabeth Cittie incorporation, in 1634 King Charles I reorganized the colony into a system of shires. The former Elizabeth Cittie became Elizabeth City Shire, after persuading 105 people to settle in the colony, Adam Thoroughgood was granted a large land holding, through the head rights system, along the Lynnhaven River in 1636. When the South Hampton Roads portion of the shire was separated, one year later, it was split into two counties, Upper Norfolk and Lower Norfolk, chiefly on Thoroughgoods recommendation. This area of Virginia became known as the place of entrepreneurs, the House of Burgesses established the Towne of Lower Norfolk County in 1680. In 1691, a final county subdivision took place when Lower Norfolk County split to form Norfolk County, in 1730, a tobacco inspection site was located here. By 1775, Norfolk developed into what contemporary observers argued was the most prosperous city in Virginia and it was an important port for exporting goods to the British Isles and beyond. In part because of its merchants numerous trading ties with other parts of the British Empire, after fleeing the colonial capital of Williamsburg, Lord Dunmore, the Royal Governor of Virginia, tried to reestablish control of the colony from Norfolk. Dunmore secured small victories at Norfolk but was forced into exile by the American rebels and his departure brought an end to more than 168 years of British colonial rule in Virginia. On New Years Day,1776, Lord Dunmores fleet of three ships shelled the city of Norfolk for more than eight hours, the damage from the shells and fires started by the British and spread by the patriots destroyed over 800 buildings, almost two-thirds of the city

U.S. Route 13 in Virginia
–
In the U. S. state of Virginia, US13 runs north–south through the Hampton Roads and Eastern Shore regions of the state, using the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel to get between the two. In the Hampton Roads area, it uses Military Highway to bypass the city centers and it is most usually a four-lane highway, sometimes up to freeway or expressway standards with controlled access. U. S. Route 13 enters the state from North Carolina on a two-lane alignment without shoulders and it passes through the small communities of Somerton and Whaleyville, intersecting a few non-state level roads along the way. Just south of Suffolk, the route intersects Virginia State Route 32, just north of this intersection, US13 separates from the roadway at a trumpet interchange and upgrades to a freeway as it prepares to bypass the city on the Southwest Suffolk Bypass. The straight alignment carries the former US13 as US13 Business, around the west side of the city, US13 lands on the main Suffolk Bypass, which carries U. S. Route 58, and the two routes begin to travel to the north. As it turns east, the interchanges with U. S. Route 460 as well. Around the north side of the city, the interchanges with SR32 once again before the freeway ends at the former alignment of US13. This interchange features several unfinished ghost ramps which aim toward US13 Business, US460 leaves the overlap at South Military Highway before the interchange, while US13 and US58 continue across, US13 leaving shortly after to rejoin US460. The two route bear eastward on Military Highway, interchanging with Interstate 64, a railroad alignment begins to parallel Military Highway, and they then cross a drawbridge, shortly after encountering Virginia State Route 166. Within this interchange, US460 bears north on SR166, while US13 continues on the Military Highway and it turns northeast as it passes through the city, with Interstate 64 beginning to parallel the route to the south. US13 then interchanges I-264 once again, and then US58, US13 then leaves Military Highway at a large at-grade intersection, turning east on Northampton Boulevard along with SR166. US13 once again meets Interstate 64 shortly after entering Northampton Boulevard, SR166 leaves at Diamond Springs Road, leaving US13 to bear north alone toward the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. The route bridges the Little Creek Reservoir on a causeway and turns to the north, interchanging with Virginia State Route 225 at a cloverleaf interchange, along the bridge, the mile markers change to reflect the length of the bridge, not the miles along US13. The Bridge-Tunnel drops the route on the Delmarva Peninsulas Eastern Shore of Virginia, on the Eastern Shore, US13 is the main north–south highway in the region, and carries the name Charles M. Lankford, Jr. Highway. The Eastern Shore routing is a highway, passing through mostly farmland and small communities, though US13 does have bypasses of most of the communities, such as Exmore. Near Oak Hall, Virginia State Route 175 leaves the route to the east, from there, the route curves slightly to the west and passes into Maryland between New Church and Pocomoke City, Maryland. As part of the Suffolk 2026 Comprehensive Plan, the city plans to bypass the community of Whaleyville in southwestern Suffolk City. US13 is a highway corridor in North Carolina towards Greenville

Virginia State Route 166
–
State Route 166 is a primary state highway in the U. S. state of Virginia. The state highway runs 15.47 miles from U. S. Route 17 in Chesapeake north to US60 in Virginia Beach. SR166 begins at an intersection with US17 just north of the Dominion Boulevard Steel Bridge over the Southern Branch Elizabeth River in the independent city of Chesapeake, the state highway heads north as Bainbridge Boulevard, a two-lane road that parallels the river through an industrial area. SR166 passes under Interstate 64 with no access, meets the end of SR190. The state highway has a cloverleaf interchange with US13 and US460, within the interchange, SR166 descends to pass under Military Highway. SR166 heads north concurrent with US460, the highways pass under I-464 and cross Milldam Creek, and continues north as a four-lane undivided highway into the South Norfolk area of Chesapeake. SR166 and US460 pass under another Norfolk Southern rail line and meet SR337 at the junction of Bainbridge Boulevard and Poindexter Street. At SR246, the two highways turn west for one block before continuing northeast on four-lane 22nd Street, which crosses over the Norfolk District rail line, SR166 and US460 veer onto two-lane Wilson Road at Berkley Street, where the road enters the city of Norfolk. SR166, US460, and SR168 head north as a divided highway across the Eastern Branch Elizabeth River on the Campostella Bridge. The boulevards name changes from Campostella Road to Brambleton Avenue at its cloverleaf interchange with I-264. There is no access from eastbound I-264 to northbound SR166 or to westbound I-264 from either direction of SR166, SR166 follows Princess Anne Road to its eastern end at Military Highway, which is US13 heading south and SR165 heading north. The three highways continue east on six-lane Northampton Boulevard, at the next intersection, SR165 splits south onto Kempsville Road. SR166 and US13 continue east across Lake Wright and meet I-64 at a cloverleaf interchange. SR166 and US13 enter the city of Virginia Beach at Wesleyan Drive, SR166 diverges from US13, which continues to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, onto Diamond Springs Road. The state highway follows that four-lane divided highway north between an area and a residential area to its northern terminus at US60 adjacent to Naval Amphibious Base Little Creek

Interstate 64 in Virginia
–
In the U. S. state of Virginia, Interstate 64 runs east–west through the middle of the state from West Virginia to the Hampton Roads region, a total of 298 miles. It is notable for crossing the mouth of the harbor of Hampton Roads on the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel, I-64 enters Virginia as a four-lane divided highway, continuing its concurrency with U. S.60 through Covington into Lexington where the two routes split. From Lexington, I-64 then turns northward to Staunton overlapping Interstate 81 in the Shenandoah Valley. S, after Charlottesville, I-64 then turns more east-southeasterly and heads towards Richmond, passing through Fluvanna, Goochland and Louisa Counties. Hurricane gates are installed at eastbound Interstate 64 entrance and exit ramps from Exit 200 to Exit 273, to date, there has never been an activation of the contraflow system in any capacity. Once on the Southside, I-64 turns south through Norfolk, passing the eastern boundary of Naval Station Norfolk and Chambers Field, and the spur route supplying it, Interstate 564. It then becomes a six lane divided highway with a two lane roadway in the middle, which is used for HOV-traffic during morning and afternoon rush hours. After entering Chesapeake, I-64 actually turns west-southwesterly and it is actually at this point when the road stops being signed as either east or west and is only signed with its Beltway designation of Inner or Outer Loop. After interchanging with another of its routes, Interstate 464, I-64 then crosses the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River using the High Rise Bridge. Early studies and proposals of the Interregional Highway System, I-64 was to use the U. S. Route 250 alignment west of Richmond and this southern route was favored by Gov. J. Lindsay Almond Jr. and most members of the State Highway Commission. The decision was on hold for three years while the state continued planning for the piece of the US250 alignment from Richmond to Short Pump, which would be needed anyway to handle traffic. In 1961, U. S. Secretary of Commerce Luther Hodges rejected that plan and chose the present route, officially, the chosen route was considered more efficient. However, there is speculation that the decision involved back-room politics of the Kennedy administration, Interstate 64 has four auxiliary routes, all of which are in the Hampton Roads Area, Interstate 664, a bypass route serving Chesapeake, Suffolk, Newport News and Hampton. Interstate 564, a route serving Naval Station Norfolk. Interstate 264, a route serving the Virginia Beach Oceanfront, Downtown Norfolk. Interstate 464, a route serving the western side of Chesapeake, Portsmouth. It connects I-64 in Chesapeake to I-264 in Norfolk, two segments on I-64 have been identified as candidates for widening, I-64 on the Virginia Peninsula from New Kent County to Newport News and I-64 in South Hampton Roads from the I-464/SR 168/U. S. 17 interchange in Chesapeake to the Bowers Hill Interchange in Suffolk, on the Peninsula, most of the I-64 corridor is a four lane roadway and is one of the most-traveled segments in the region, connecting the Hampton Roads Metro to the Greater Richmond region. The approved plan selected by VDOT and partners included the plan that added a general purpose lane in each direction by either expanding into the median or on the outside shoulder
