Extended Window for Feedback: Rt. 29 Safety Improvements
The Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT) Strategically Targeted Affordable Roadway Solutions (STARS) study is assessing potential safety, operational, transit and bicycle/pedestrian improvements along the approximately mile-long stretch of Langston Boulevard (Route 29) between North Veitch Street and North Lynn Street.
This feedback will be used to help develop potential alternatives that will be evaluated and presented during the second round of public involvement scheduled in late 2025.
Within the study limits, Langston Boulevard averages 12,000 vehicles a day. It has a 40 mph posted speed limit between North Veitch Street and North Nash Street, and a 30 mph posted speed limit between North Nash Street and North Lynn Street.
Share your feedback through Wednesday, March 19 on the study page under "Public Involvement."
