If you are looking to participate in a public meeting related to the 2025 Corridor Improvement Plan Update, visit this page.

Accurate and timely public information is just as important to the success of this program as the improvements we are embarking upon. We will regularly collaborate with community members to ensure they are up-to-date on site plans and project milestones. Opportunities for two-way communication will be available as aspects of this program move forward.

Please continue to check this website for scheduled public meetings and materials to stay informed on our progress. You can also follow VDOT’s social media platforms for more information.

The Advisory Committee page offers live streaming of meetings and contact information for members of the public who wish to ask questions or offer comments.
