Introduction
I-95 Access Study New Access to I-95 between Route 3 and the Rappahannock River 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background The George Washington Regional Commission (GWRC) and the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) are evaluating the possibility of constructing a new access point or interchange with I-95 in the City of Fredericksburg between the Rappahannock River and VA 3 (Route 3). A new toll parkway would intersect with I-95 near the existing rest area and proceed west and tie into Route 3 near Gordon Road (Route 627). Located midway between Washington, D.C. and Richmond, the George Washington Region of Virginia is the scene of intensive growth extending back several decades, as it has become a bedroom community to Washington, D.C. and, to a lesser extent Richmond. Since 1960, the regional population has more than quintupled, from 60,000 residents to nearly 325,000 residents. This hyper growth has manifested itself in rapid suburbanization and has unduly strained the surface transportation system of the Region, taxing the capacity of roadway arterials and collectors alike. None of these roadways has been impacted as much as I-95, a national lifeline and a vital Regional arterial. Interstate 95 traverses the George Washington Region for about forty-seven miles, through the Counties of Stafford, Spotsylvania and Caroline, as well as the City of Fredericksburg. At various places along its course through the Region, I-95 fails from too much traffic and too little capacity. This failure adversely affects the nation as a whole, but it directly threatens the economic well-being and quality of life of residents in the Region. -

Johnson County Whiteland Road Reconstruction
TOWN OF BARGERSVILLE NEWSLETTER VOLUME 9 AUGUST 2020 HAWK Signal at Harriman Avenue and Old Plank Road Highlights of HAWK Signal: • Traffic is only stopped as needed • Flashes red when traffic is required to stop and yield to pedestrians • Activated through push buttons, that allow crossing one leg at a time On Old Plank Looking West HAWK Signal Overview As part of the pedestrian improvements project along Old Plank Road the Town has installed a HAWK signal at the intersection of Old Plank Road/Harriman Avenue/Short Street. HAWK is an acronym and stands for High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk, this signal is solely for pedestrians to be able to cross busy intersections safely. This is not a typical traffic signal, traffic flows as normal until one of the push buttons at the intersection is activated which then stops traffic as needed, otherwise the signal stays dark. Once one of the push buttons is activated the timing allows for pedestrians to cross one leg of the intersection at a time, then the push buttons must be reactivated to continue crossing the other legs. Please see the next page for a overview of the intersection.
