Design Plans in Development for Evergreen Mills Road Realignment

Posted on November 11, 2022 at 10:39 AM by Nancy McCormick

After receiving design endorsement from the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors in February 2021, the County’s design team has been making progress on the plans for the Evergreen Mills Road Realignment project. When complete, Evergreen Mills Road at the intersections of Reservoir Road and Watson Road will be realigned to create a new four-way signalized intersection. The County’s design team is currently preparing to submit design plans at 60% completion to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and the Loudoun County Department of Building and Development (B&D) for review by the end of the month. Additional field work related to geotechnical investigations is also expected to begin mid-May 2021.

In the coming months, the design team will advance the project design and incorporate comments from VDOT and B&D reviews. Land Acquisition efforts are currently anticipated to begin in fall 2021.

The Evergreen Mills Road Realignment project is an existing Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project that was also identified as a long-term recommendation in the Evergreen Mills Road Safety Audit and Improvements (completed in 2019). It provides for the planning, design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction of the realignment of Evergreen Mills Road at the intersections of Reservoir Road and Watson Road. The improvements propose a new four-way signalized intersection between Evergreen Mills Road, Watson Road and Reservoir Road.
