Eastern Loudoun Transportation Study

Update on the Eastern Loudoun Transportation Study prepared for the Board of Supervisors' Transportation and Land Use Committee, October 14, 2016.

In 2012, the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors directed staff to undertake a study of the road network in Eastern Loudoun, which was defined as the area east of Route 659 and Route 659 relocated from the Potomac River on the north, Prince William County to the south and Fairfax County to the east. The purpose of the study was to provide information relating to the Countywide Transportation Plan (CTP) road network to include:

  • Network deficiencies
  • Missing links
  • Cost estimates to build the interim condition
  • Development proffers/conditions related to the missing links and network deficiencies
  • The proffer/condition triggers
  • Right of way availability
  • Potential funding sources if the projects are not funded wholly or in part through proffers/conditions
