The Phase 2 survey regarding potential improvements along Peters Creek Rd. (Route 117) and along Williamson Rd. (Route 11) between Wood Haven Rd. (Route 628) and Plantation Rd. (Route 115) in Roanoke County is complete.
The purpose of this study is to identify project recommendations for the Peters Creek Road (Route 117) and Williamson Road (Route 11) corridors within Roanoke County. This study will focus on improving roadway safety, reliability, multimodal accessibility/connectivity (bicycle, pedestrian, and transit), and transportation demand management needs. The project recommendations from this study may be developed into funding applications for SMART SCALE Round 6 and other transportation funding programs.
