VDOT will hold a design public hearing on Wednesday to share plans for a new single-lane roundabout at the intersection of Route 231 (West Gordon Avenue) and Route 1006 (North High Street) in the Town of Gordonsville in Orange County.

The hearing will be held at the Gordonsville Volunteer Fire Company at 301 E. Baker St. in Gordonsville from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

VDOT plans to reconstruct the stop sign-controlled intersection as a single-lane roundabout with pedestrian crossings at all four quadrants of the intersection.

The work includes installing a sidewalk along Route 231 between Wright Street and North High Street.

The community is invited to stop in and view this $12 million SMART SCALE project, ask questions, and leave comments.

You can submit comments to John Rose, Project Manager, 1601 Orange Road, Culpeper VA 22701, or e-mail them to [email protected].

Reference “Gordonsville Roundabout Comment” in the subject line.
