The Northfax East-West Roadway project will construct a new east-west roadway between the University Drive roundabout at the Point 50 shopping center and Chain Bridge Road. This connection is recommended in the Northfax Small Area Plan as a means to break up the large block and improve circulation for motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists.
This project is included in the city's FY 2024-25 Two-Year Transportation Program, adopted by City Council on June 13, 2023. The projects in the program are eligible for regional, state, and federal funding consideration over the next 2-10 years. The projects recommended in the program balance local and regional transportation needs, improve connectivity, and facilitate livability.
