Hampton RDS - warwick blvd & oyster point RD intersection improvement

The Virginia Department of Transportation was awarded $750,000 on August 3, 2022 from the Federal Highway Administration under the Highway Planning and Construction federal grant program (CFDA 20.205). The funding will support preliminary engineering design work to establish a third southbound left turn lane on Warwick Boulevard as well as a corresponding receiving lane eastbound on Oyster Point Road in Newport News, Virginia. This infrastructure improvement project aims to alleviate congestion for southbound left turning and northbound through traffic on Warwick Boulevard at its intersection with Oyster Point Road. The grant funds will deliver transportation planning and design services to expand the capacity of this intersection and reduce congestion consistent with the broader federal program goals of assisting states in highway construction, preservation and improvement activities.
