The City of Alexandria is seeking community input on seven high-crash intersections on the city’s West End to inform future safety improvements at these locations.
“We want to hear from you,” the City says in a press release. “Provide your input by completing a short online feedback form by Monday, April 28. Your input will help the project team identify challenges and needs, as well as opportunities for improvement”.
The following intersections are being considered:
- King Street and Dawes Avenue
- King Street and 28th Street
- King Street and Park Center Drive
- Seminary Road and Mark Center Avenue
- Seminary Road and Kenmore Avenue/Library Lane
- South Van Dorn Street and South Pickett Street
- South Van Dorn Street and Edsall Road
Access the feedback form here.
The City says these intersections were identified through a 2022 citywide crash analysis. The City says that the same year, it secured federal funding via the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safe Streets & Roads for All Grant Program to perform safety audits and develop concept designs for improvements at these locations.
This effort supports the City’s adopted Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic deaths and severe injuries in Alexandria by targeting safety improvements at locations with a history and high risk of fatal or severe crashes.
