About the Project:
The widening of Military Highway in Norfolk was originally slated to be a three-phased project encompassing a mile and a half total roadway. However, the three projects (UPC 9783, 84243, 1765) will now be combined into one project.
This project has now been included on the Governor’s Transportation Initiative in the Fiscal Year 2012 Six Year Improvement Plan as a potential Design-Build project with advertisement in Summer 2014.
The procurement for a consultant to develop 30% plans and technical requirements for the Design Build RFP began July 1, 2011.
- Phase 1 (UPC 84243)
The first project scheduled for construction includes the northern section of Military Highway around Interstate I-64 and Robin Hood Road. It will widen the existing four lanes of traffic to six lanes. The section of Robin Hood Road from the I-64 Robin Hood Road Exit Ramp to Military Highway will be widened to provide two lanes of traffic in both directions, along with an extended right turn lane from Robin Hood Road to access Military Highway south bound. - Phase 2 (UPC 9783)
The second phase covers the southern section from Lowery Road to Broad Creek. - Phase 3 (UPC 1765)
The final phase includes the middle section of Military Highway from Broad Creek to the Norfolk Southern Railroad Track. This phase is currently in the scoping phase.
