VDOT studying around-the-clock, two-way Express Lanes on I-95

The Virginia Department of Transportation is exploring adding bi-directional, around-the-clock express lanes for approximately 45 miles of Interstate 95 in Northern Virginia. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors on Oct. 20 received an informational presentation from the department on the feasibility of converting the I-95 reversible express lanes to bi-directional operations. The express lanes currently operate in one direction at a time, with the direction changing based on established weekday and weekend schedules; drivers traveling in the opposite direction cannot access the express lanes. The proposed bi-directional configuration would allow express lane travel in both directions at all times. The proposed project, led by the Virginia Department of Transportation, is still in the feasibility stage, according to a county news release. Feasibility has not yet been determined because potential property, traffic, road configuration, ingress and egress and environmental impacts require further study, the release states. The schedule and construction timeline also remain uncertain, pending the results of the study, necessary approvals and a commercial agreement. The examination is evaluating approximately 45 miles of the I-95 Express Lanes from near the Springfield Interchange in Fairfax County to Spotsylvania County. Under the concept presented to the board, three express lanes would
