Awww. Sounds like NORVA residents need more Metro stations , buses, and bike lanes.

To be fair, this project is a waste. It simply parrallels a free road that already has 55 mph speed limits. The toll road might cut 10 minutes off the trip if that. The money would have been much better spent elsewhere. The article makes it sound like a Hampton Roads project, but we are furious as well and McD was has been so insistent on it against the people’s will, he’s got to be getting kickbacks. It isn’t always republicans=good, democrats=bad.

Actually we need an aerial highway from Springfield to Manassas. That would avoid despoiling our primary watershed and give us a great view of the mountains just past Dulles.

That would avoid needing to four lane the SpfldBps ~ or Fairfax Parkway as it's known today.

BTW, that would cut the trip down to about 15 minutes from it's current 42 minute drag.

Probably boost my home price 50%

One other bennie would be no more need to improve Braddock Road. If it was good enough for George Washington, it's good enough.
