ABOUT THE PROJECT

The goal of this project is to relieve traffic congestion on Glenn McConnell Parkway by widening the road from four-to-six lanes between Bees Ferry Road and Magwood Drive.

This project also intends to improve bike and pedestrian facilities through the addition of a multi-use path allowing safe pedestrian access across the CSX Railway.

The County will examine various improvement alternatives that would ease traffic congestion while remaining sensitive to existing site conditions such as drainage.
