|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Interstate 64 at exit 118 Interchange Modifications | $1,000,000 | $265,000 | $0 | $735,000 | This project involves eliminating the loop ramp from southbound Route 29 to eastbound I-64. A dual left-turn lane and a connection to the existing ramp from northbound Route 29 to eastbound I-64 will be constructed. This modification will eliminate two weave movements that have been identified as a factor in many crashes. |
| Interstate 64 at exit 124 Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) | $18,400,000 | $2,300,000 | $1,100,000 | $15,000,000 | This project will build a diverging diamond interchange (DDI) on Route 250 and make other low-cost improvements for safety and congestion relief. The work also includes ramp improvements, new signals and signal upgrades, drainage improvements and utility relocations. |
| Fontaine Avenue Ramp Improvements | $2,900,000 | $600,000 | $300,000 | $2,000,000 | This project involves adding an option lane—through/right-merge lane—at the Fontaine Avenue exit from northbound Route 29. The project will ease current weaving issues and remove conflict points. |
| Route 250 / 151 Roundabout | $5,800,000 | $950,000 | $850,000 | $4,000,000 | The intersection of Route 250 (Rockfish Gap Turnpike) and Route 151 (Critzers Shop Road) in Afton, near the Nelson County line, will be reconstructed as a roundabout. |
| Route 20 / Route 649 Roundabout | $4,000,000 | $700,000 | $1,000,000 | $2,300,000 | This project will convert the intersection of Route 20 (Stony Point Road), Route 649 (Proffit Road) and Route 1494 (Riggory Ridge Road) to a single-lane roundabout to improve safety and traffic flow. |
| Rio Mills Road/Berkmar Drive Connection | $3,800,000 | $850,000 | $500,000 | $2,450,000 | This project will construct a quarter-mile, two-lane road to connect Rio Mills Road to the recently completed Berkmar Drive Extended.
