STARS US 17/15/29 Corridor Study

STARS US 17/15/29 Corridor Study

This STARS (Strategically Targeted Affordable Roadway Solutions) study will assess safety and operational conditions for approximately 5 miles of James Madison Highway (US-17/15/29) between Opal Road and the South Warrenton Interchange in Fauquier County. US-17 is the major north-south travel corridor within Fauquier County that carries a significant number of trucks and multi-axle vehicles. The study will consider and develop potential safety and operational improvements for all users in the study area and develop cost estimates for the preferred alternatives. The study will not set construction dates for any of the alternatives. The purpose of this study is to develop proposed improvements that localities can pursue for funding, and to consider including in their comprehensive plans.
