North. Franklin street - depot street intersection

The Virginia Department of Transportation was awarded $769,178 on January 30, 2023 through the Highway Planning and Construction federal grant program (CFDA 20.205) administered by the Federal Highway Administration. The funding will support preliminary engineering designs to improve safety at the intersection of North Franklin Street, Depot Street, and College Street in Montgomery County, Virginia. Specifically, the project aims to reconfigure turn lanes at both intersections, convert North Franklin Street from two through lanes in each direction to one through lane with a center turn lane, and change College Street to a right-in/right-out configuration only. The placement of pedestrian facilities is also included. The funding will deliver infrastructure safety improvements at key intersections to benefit the local community.
