Major Construction Coming to Stringfellow Road

Stringfellow Road will undergo some big changes over the next two years, and residents can learn what to expect at a public meeting next week. 

VDOT will host the meeting at 7 p.m. this Wednesday, April 3 in the Chantilly High School library. 

Construction workers will widen a portion of Stringfellow Road, from Fair Lakes Boulevard to Route 50, expanding it from two lanes to four. They will also add a six-foot wide sidewalk on the west side of the road, a ten-foot wide shared-use path on the east side. 

The estimated 23,000 drivers who use the road daily can also expect to see a new left-turn lane northbound to Route 50. Workers will also make some changes to the southbound approach to Route 50, improve the intersection. 

The $63 million project is expected to continue until summer 2015. 

According to VDOT, portions of the work will be performed at night and could temporarily restrict Stringfellow Road traffic to one-way. If this is the case, VDOT says it will provide public notice well in advance.
