Project Pipeline S. Military Highway / Bainbridge Boulevard Study (HR-23-08)

Project Pipeline is a performance-based planning program to identify cost-effective solutions to multimodal transportation needs in Virginia. Through this planning process, projects and solutions may be considered for funding through programs, including SMART SCALE, revenue sharing, interstate funding and others.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the safety and multimodal access issues identified at the interchange of South Military Highway (Route 460/Route 13) and Bainbridge Boulevard (Route 460/Route 166) between the Gilmerton Bridge and I-464 ramps, with a focus on providing enhanced bicycle and transit access, transportation demand management, and safety improvements. This interchange has a high number of angle crashes and rear-end crashes. One bicyclist involved crash was reported. The objective of this study is to identify cost-effective preferred improvement alternatives that address the deficient conditions and prioritize safety for vulnerable users.
