Interstate 64 at exit 118 Interchange Modifications
The Interstate 64 at exit 118 Interchange Modifications is a planned transportation improvement planned by the Virginia Department of Transportation that is one of six Albemarle County Design-Build Projects combined into one contract.
Curtis Consulting of West Point was awarded a $28.5 million contract by the Commonwealth Transportation Board at their meeting on July 19, 2019. [1]
This project has a total cost estimate of $1 million. Of that amount, $265,000 is for preliminary engineering and $735,000 is for construction. There is no funding anticipated for right of way acquisition of utility relocation.
Project purpose
"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."
