From Wagner Road to Route 629 (Rives Road)
The Phase 2 survey regarding potential improvements along Wagner Rd. from Normandy Dr. to U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Rd.), U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Rd.) from Wagner Rd. to Route 629 (Rives Rd.), and Route 629 (Rives Rd.) from U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Rd.) to Lakeshore Dr. in the City of Petersburg and Prince George County is complete.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and operational issues and develop solutions along Wagner Road from Normandy Drive to U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Road), U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Road) from Wagner Road to Route 629 (Rives Road), and Route 629 (Rives Road) from U.S. Route 301 (S. Crater Road) to Lakeshore Drive. This 3.7-mile corridor includes segments identified with VTrans Priority 1 District Needs. The majority of this corridor is considered a VTrans Priority 2 District Safety Improvement Need, with one fatal pedestrian crash and two Potential for Safety Improvement (PSI) intersections along the corridor. The study goals are to identify safety, congestion, transportation demand management, and accessibility (bicycle, pedestrian, and transit) improvements along the corridor for all transportation users.
