Poplar Tree Road Bridge Opens In Chantilly

The Poplar Tree Road extension and bridge over Route 28 in Chantilly has now opened. It connects Walney and Stringfellow roads on the east side of Route 28 with Stonecroft Boulevard and Westfields Boulevard on the west side. It features a shared-use path linking to the new E.C. Lawrence Park access road. The bridge also gives bicyclists and pedestrians improved access to the park, especially those living on the west side of Route 28. According to The Connection Newspapers, "As for the new bridge, it includes two travel lanes in each direction; its 10-foot-wide path is on the north side. Built to accommodate the possible, future expansion of Poplar Tree Road, this bridge is just one of several, recent Route 28 improvements that are part of the Transform 66 Outside the Beltway Project." As per The Connection Newspapers, "Additional connections between Route 28 north, I-66 west and the new Braddock/ Walney roads overpass are slated to open in the upcoming weeks. The Poplar Tree Road Bridge was partially funded by the $500 million concession fee payment to Virginia by I-66 Express Mobility Partners; FAM Construction LLC built it."
