Lucketts safety improvements public hearing

The Virginia Department of Transportation will hold a virtual design public hearing Thursday, June 23, on planned safety improvements along Rt. 15 (James Monroe Highway) in the Village of Lucketts.

The improvements include:

• Adding new sidewalks
• Enhancing the pedestrian crossing adjacent to the northern Lucketts Elementary School entrance
• Striping a new crosswalk with pedestrian signals at the Stumptown Road (Rt. 662) intersection
• Modifying the right-turn lane to Lucketts Road (Rt. 662)

Rt. 15 averages 26,000 vehicles a day within the project limits based on 2019 data.

This project is financed with federal and state funding.
