ITEM #1
Draft 2006-2007 through 2011-2012 Secondary Road Improvement Plan
The Frederick County Secondary Road Improvement Plan is a six (6) year transportation plan for all
secondary roads in Frederick County. The Secondary Road Plan is divided into the following three
categories: Major Road Improvement Projects, Hardsurface Road Improvement Projects, and
Incidental Road Improvement Projects. Major road improvement projects include the construction
of new roads or the upgrading of existing roads. Aylor Drive is an example of a major road
improvement project. Hardsurface road improvement projects include the paving of existing
Secondary Roads which are unpaved. The third category of the Secondary Road Improvement Plan
is the Incidental Road Improvement Plan. The transportation projects within this category include
spot improvements on existing roads. Two examples of incidental road improvement projects could
be adding a stop sign at an intersection or widening a turn.
This year the unscheduled list of major road improvements projects has been dropped. Projects on
the list had little prospect for funding. While the list is no longer included in the 6 year plan, it is
still kept for reference by the Planning Department.
Two projects have been added to the list of unscheduled hardsurfacing projects — Laurel Grove Road
and Babbs Mountain Road. Laurel Grove Road, while not on last year's list, was on the list in
previous years. In addition, the Old Baltimore Road project has been extended to include more of
this road. A petition from the majority of adjoining property owners was submitted for each of these
projects. Staff has attached the worksheets for the hardsurfacing road project to show how each
project was rated. Please also find attached a copy of the Frederick County Hardsurfacing Rating
System Policy. Walters Mill Lane was dropped from the list of unscheduled hardsurfacing projects
as it was paved by the adjacent quarry.
A number of roads on the hardsurfacing lists are eligible for the Rural Rustic Road Program. This
program allows roads to be hardsurfaced with lesser design standards and a lower cost. Prior to
entrance into the Rural Rustic Road Program the Board of Supervisors must pass a resolution of
request. VDOT is ultimately responsible for determining if a road qualifies for this program. A copy
of the Rural Rustic Road guidelines is attached for your information.
The process to update the Secondary Road Improvement Plan begins in Frederick County and ends
in Richmond. After review by the Frederick County Transportation Committee and Planning
Commission, the Board of Supervisors will forward a recommended update to the Virginia
Department of Transportation for their consideration. Ultimately, VDOT is responsible for
establishing the priority of projects in Frederick County.
Including the information mentioned above, please find attached a copy of the draft Secondary
Road Improvement Plan for the 2006-2007 update, including a staff prepared map showing
scheduled hardsurfacing road improvement (HRI) projects and major road improvement (MRI)
projects.

HARDSURFACE ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
2006/2007 through 2011/2012
Hardsurface road improvement projects provide impervious resurfacing and reconstruction of non-hardsurfaced
secondary roads. Hardsurface improvement projects are prioritized by an objective rating system, which
considers average daily traffic volumes; occupied structures; physical road conditions including geometrics,
drainage, and accident reports; school bus routing; and the time that project requests have been on the
Secondary Road Improvement Plan.

HARD SURFACE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
RATING SYSTEM POLICY
Adopted by the Frederick County Board of Supervisors on October 7, 1997
The following procedures are intended to delineate the steps necessary for the application of this
rating system policy. Adherence to these procedures will ensure consistency in the application of
this rating system policy for existing and future hard surface road improvement project requests.
This policy shall be effective following the adoption of these procedures through a public hearing
process held by the Board of Supervisors and shall only be altered through the same process.
Information pertaining to the rating system application for each hard surface road improvement
project shall be maintained in the Frederick County Planning Department database system.
The Board of Supervisors shall have the authority to revise the Hard Surface Road Improvement
Projects section of the Frederick County Secondary Road Improvement Plan subsequent to the
application of the rating system to ensure the health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens
of Frederick County.
RATING SYSTEM REVIEW AGENCIES
• Candidate projects shall be rated by the Frederick County Planning Department, the
Frederick County Transportation Committee, and the Virginia Department of
Transportation (VDOT).
• One rating sheet shall be prepared for each candidate project by each review entity.
• The Frederick County Planning Department shall rate each candidate project.
• The Transportation Committee members shall rate each candidate project within their
respective magisterial districts.
• The VDOT Residency shall rate each candidate project through information received from
the Maintenance Supervisors for all roads within their respective maintenance districts.
RATING SYSTEM APPLICATION METHODOLOGY
• Candidate projects shall be rated utilizing the following information and methodology for
each category:
1) a�vera- Daily Traffic Count - utilize the most recent traffic counts for 'each
candidate project provided by the VDOT Residency.
2) Occupied Structures - utilize the Frederick County Planning Department addressing
database and digital mapping system to determine the total number of occupied
structures that have direct access to, or whose only means of ingress and egress
from a private road is achieved by each candidate project.
3) Physical Road Conditions/Safety
a) Surface Width - obtain surface width data for each candidate project
through the VDOT Residency Maintenance Supervisors.
b) Shoulder Width - obtain shoulder width data for each candidate project
through the VDOT Residency Maintenance Supervisors.
c) Horizontal Curvature - horizontal curvature is determined to be deficient
if sight distance around the curve is limited by cut sections or vegetation
traveling at normal driving speeds.
2
lb RATING SYSTEM APPLICATION METHODOLOGY (Continued)
d) Vertical Curvature - vertical curvature is determined to be deficient if sight
distance is significantly reduced or eliminated due to the rise and fall of the
road segment traveling at normal driving speeds.
e) Drainage - candidate projects shall be determined to have good, fair, or
poor drainage utilizing the following guidelines:
Good: Pipes are of adequate size and number. Water drains away from the
roadway and creates no problem with surface maintenance. Ditches
are of adequate size which produce no flooding within the roadway.
Fair: Pipes are of adequate size; however, additional pipes may be
needed. Water drains away from the roadway with minimal
maintenance problems. Drainage ditches are in good condition,
require little maintenance, and produce no flooding within the
roadway.
Poor: Pipes are not adequate in size or number. Ditch lines are
inadequate. and require extra maintenance. Water does not drain
from the 1-padway effectively; greating maintenance problems and - -'
flooding.
I% _ Accident Data -.-obtain police accident report data reflecting property
damage and personal injury from the VDOT Residency Traffic Engineering
Division.
4) School Bus Travel - utilize information reflecting current or proposed school bus
travel routes for each candidate project provided by the Frederick County Public
Schools Transportation Supervisor.
5) Time On Road Plan - utilize information from current and previously approved
Frederick County Secondary Road Improvement Plans maintained within the
Frederick County Planning Department to determine when candidate projects were
incorporated.
3
RATING SYSTEM POINTS APPLICATION
• Total points are determined for each category element. A cumulative total is obtained for
each candidate project utilizing the total points derived from each category element.
• The cumulative total for each candidate project is provided to the Frederick County
Planning Department by all review entities. An average is determined for each candidate
project utilizing the cumulative points from each review entity sheet and dividing by three.
All candidate projects are ranked from the highest cumulative point average to the lowest
cumulative point average within their respective classification.
• If two or more candidate projects have the same cumulative point average, a tie -breaking
system will be utilized. Each affected candidate project will be compared to the others
starting with the category of greatest weight and working through the categories of lesser
weights respectively until the tie is broken.
• The cumulative point average for each candidate project shall be final. Any citizen request
or Board action which results in the alteration of a previously rated and ranked candidate
project will require a new rating application by all review entities. The altered candidate
project will then be incorporated into the Hard Surface Road Improvement Plan
accordingly,-
HARD
ccordingly;
HARD SURFACE ROAD IMPROV fi PLAN FORMAT
• The Hard Surface Road Improvement Projects section of the Frederick County Secondary
Road Improvement Plan will reflect the candidate projects with the highest cumulative
point average that can be incorporated into the VDOT Six -Year Fiscal Plan based on
available funding. This information will be provided to the Frederick County Planning
Department by the VDOT Residency.
• All remaining candidate projects will be placed on an Unscheduled Hard Surface
Improvement Projects list which will be incorporated within the Frederick County
Secondary Road Improvement Plan. Candidate projects incorporated into this section of
the plan will be ranked from the highest cumulative point average to the lowest cumulative
point average.
4
HARD SURFACE ROAD IMPROVEMENT PLAN FORMAT (Continued)
-a
• The VDOT will advise the Frederick County Transportation Committee when funding is
available for the inclusion of new candidate projects within the Hard Surface Road
Improvement Projects section of the Frederick County Secondary Road Improvement Plan.
All candidate projects placed on the Unscheduled Hard Surface Improvement Projects list,
as well as newly requested candidate projects, will be reviewed by all review agencies to
determine current conditions. Appropriate ranking for all candidate projects will be
determined at that time and placed accordingly.
NEW PROJECT REQUESTS
A written request must be provided to the Frederick County Planning Department which
describes the location of the candidate project, the origin and terminus of the segment, and
a petition signed by at Ieast 51 % of all property owners fronting on the proposed segment
indicating their willingness to participate in right-of-way dedication should the project
receive favorable recommendation by the Board of Supervisors.
The Transportation Committee shall recommend new project requests which meet this
criteria after determining that the candidate project includes a segment of a state route that
has a rational origin and terminus.
PROJECT REMOVAL
OVAL
Road improvements projects shall be removed from the plan once VDOT has notified
Frederick County that the project has been funded and advertised for bid.
The Board of Supervisors may remove projects from the plan if VDOT has provided
notification that right -of --way efforts have been ceased.

Foreword
The Local Assistance Division and the Rural Rustic Road Policy Committee are
pleased to present these Guidelines for Rural Rustic Roads. This concept, first
enacted by the 2002 Session of the General Assembly of Virginia, is a practical
approach to paving Virginia's Low Volume Unpaved Roads. A pilot program
implemented in July 2002, demonstrated the success of this program concept. It
ensures that we practice environmental and financial stewardship while providing
basic paved access to more of our rural countryside. The 2003 Session of the
General Assembly amended the legislation to provide that this method will be
considered as a first alternative for improving all unpaved roads in the future. The
Rural Rustic Road Program is effective July 1,2003.
Special appreciation is expressed to the

GUIDELINES FOR RURAL RUSTIC ROAD PROGRAM
Effective July 1, 2003
The following guidelines apply to the Rural Rustic Road Program:
Eligibility Criteria
❑ Must be an unpaved road already within the State Secondary System.
❑ Must carry at least 50 but no more than 500 vehicles per day.
❑ Must be a priority (line item) in an approved Secondary Six -Year Plan, even if the
funding source isnot from normal, secondary construction allocations.
❑ Governing body of County, in consultation with VDOT's Resident Engineer or designee,
must designate a road or road segment as a Rural Rustic Road.
❑ Roadway or roadway section must be predominately for local traffic use.
❑ The local nature of the road means that most motorists using the road have traveled it
before and are familiar with its features.
❑ County Board of Supervisors will endeavor to limit growth on roads improved under the
Rural Rustic Road program and cooperate with the Department through its
comprehensive planning process to develop lands consistent with rural rustic road
concepts.
❑ Requires a special Resolution designating the road as a Rural Rustic Road by County
Board of Supervisors for each individual road (see page 6).

VDOT Review of Rural Rustic Road Candidate Projects
❑ Consider the views of the governing body making the request and of the residents and
owners of the adjacent property.
❑ Consider the historical and aesthetic significance of such road and its surroundings.
❑ Focus on leaving trees, vegetation, side slopes, and open drainage abutting the roadway
undisturbed to the maximum extent possible.
❑ Improvements along Rural Rustic Roads may be less than minimum design standards, as
outlined in the Chief Engineer's memorandum dated June 11, 2002. AASHTO's
Guidelines For Geometric Design of Very Low -Volume Local Roads {ADT <= 400)
may be used as a guide.
❑ Look for evidence of site-specific safety problems and focus safety expenditures on those
sites where a site-specific safety problem exists. Consideration should be given to
appropriate warning signs as needed.
❑ Low volume local roads have very few crashes. Even when 5 —10 year crash data are
available, this data will often be so sparse that other indicators of safety problems should
be considered as well. Such other indicators may include field reviews to note skid marks
or roadside damage, speed data (which may indicate whether speeds are substantially
higher than the intended design speed), or concerns raised by police or local residents.
7/2/03
Approval Process
❑ *Resident Engineer is VDOT's designated representative in dealing with County Boards
of Supervisors regarding Rural Rustic Roads.
❑ Board of Supervisors requests the Resident Engineer to evaluate a section of road as a
candidate for the Rural Rustic Road program.
❑ Resident Engineer advises Board whether road appears to be a good candidate for
program.
❑ Resident Engineer will review all proposed unpaved road projects in the approved
Secondary Six -Year Plan for eligibility as a Rural Rustic Road project.
❑ Board of Supervisors designates road as Rural Rustic Road, by resolution.
❑ Resident Engineer concurs in designation and determines if improvements can be made
according to Rural Rustic Road concepts and advises Board of project concept.
❑ If for some reason the Board of Supervisors does not accept the final decision from the
Resident Engineer after consideration by the District Administrator's office, a final
appeal may be sent through the Resident Engineer and District Administrator to the Chief
Engineer, for consideration by the Commissioner.
❑ Resident Engineer requests assistance from other divisions, as needed in developing
project in accordance with Rural Rustic Road Guidelines.
❑ Requires State Environmental Review Process and permit determination by
Environmental staff of VDOT.
❑ Requires scoping documentation (either LD -430 package or modified scoping document
developed by Programming Division, see page 7).
*Note: The Transportation Manager will be VDOT's designated representative in Northern
Virginia.

Enabling Legislation
§ 33.1-70.1. Requesting Department to hard -surface secondary roads; paving of certain secondary roads
within existing rights-of-way; designation as Rural Rustic Road.
A. Whenever the governing body of any county,
after consultation with personnel of the
Department of Transportation, adopts a
resolution requesting the Department of
Transportation to hard -surface any secondary
road in such county that carries fifty or more
vehicles per day with a hard surface of width
and strength adequate for such traffic volume,
the Department of Transportation shall give
consideration to such resolution in establishing
priority in expending the funds allocated to such
county. The Department shall consider the
paving of roads with a right-of-way width of less
than forty feet under this subsection when land
is, has been, or can be acquired by gift for the
purpose of constructing a hard -surface road.
B. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection
A of this section, any unpaved secondary road
that carries at least fifty but no more than 750
vehicles per day may be paved or improved and
paved within its existing right-of-way or within
a wider right-of-way that is less than forty feet
wide if the following conditions are met:
1. The governing body of the county in which
the road is located has requested paving of such
road as part of the six-year plan for the county
under § 33.1-70.01 and transmitted that request
to the Commonwealth Transportation
Commissioner.
2. The Commonwealth Transportation
Commissioner, after having considered only (i)
the safety of such road in its current condition
and in its paved or improved condition,
including the desirability of reduced speed limits
and installation of other warning signs or
devices, (ii) the views of the residents and
owners of property adjacent to or served by such
road, (iii) the views of the governing body
making the request, (iv) the historical and
aesthetic significance of such road and its
7/2/03
surroundings, (v) the availability of any
additional land that has been or may be acquired
by gift or other means for the purpose of paving
such road within its existing right-of-way or
within a wider right-of-way that is less than
forty feet wide, and (vi) environmental
considerations, shall grant or deny the request
for the paving of such road under this
subsection.
C. Notwithstanding the provisions of
subsections A and B, the governing body of any
county, in consultation with the Department,
may designate a road or road segment as a Rural
Rustic Road provided such road or road segment
(i) is located in a low-density development area
and has an average daily traffic volume of no
more than 500 vehicles per day and (ii) has a
posted speed limit consistent with the
topography and features along the road. For a
road or road segment so designated,
improvements shall utilize a paved surface width
based on reduced and flexible standards that
leave trees, vegetation, side slopes and open
drainage abutting the roadway undisturbed to the
maximum extent possible without compromising
public safety. The provisions of this subsection
shall become effective July 1, 2003.
D. The Commonwealth, its agencies,
instrumentalities, departments, officers, and
employees acting within the scope of their duties
and authority shall be immune for damages by
reason of actions taken in conformity with the
provisions of this section. Immunity for the
governing body of any political subdivision
requesting paving under this section and the
officers and employees of any such political
subdivision shall be limited to that immunity
provided pursuant to § 15.2-1405.
