Item 1: Capital Improvement Program Update
Topic Synopsis
Staff will be discussing the update of the transportation portion of the County’s Capital Improvement
Program update.
Analysis
Attached please find the transportation portion of the County’s current Capital Improvement Program.
At this time, with the Comprehensive Plan update scheduled for next year and the current round of
SmartScale applications still pending staff is recommending few changes. Those recommended changes
are as follows:
1. Removal of item 2, Crossover Blvd. & Bridge of I-81 due to the expectation that it will be nearing
completion by the time the new Capital Improvement Program is adopted. Note: While project
1, Route 277 Widening and Safety Improvements (PH 1) is also under construction, it is very
early in the project which is why staff is not recommending that that project be removed at this
time.
2. Update of costs to adjust for inflation.
3.Update of Redbud Road costs to reflect VDOT analysis of that project which is expected to be
completed shortly.

Item 3: County Project Updates
Crossover Boulevard aka Tevis Street Extension/Airport Road/I-81 Bridge:
Work on the Route 522 intersection area is progressing, and the project team recently met to address an
issue with entrances near the intersection that required a minor plan modification.
Renaissance Drive:
Staff and the County’s private partners recently met with CSX to discuss issues with drainage design
across the railroad tracks. The railroad did not accept the County’s previous proposed solution and the
meeting was to discuss alternatives. The County provided several questions in the meeting which we are
awaiting answers for. It is expected that whatever is determined will likely result in a higher cost estimate,
but the amount cannot be determined until the design solution can be agreed upon. Staff will continue to
provide updates as we work through this process.
