US Route 50 and VA Route 27 Study Alternatives (NV-23-06)
Welcome to the US Route 50 and VA Route 27 Project Pipeline Study
Please provide feedback on project ideas to improve safety on key areas of US Route 50/Arlington Boulevard between Fillmore Street and N. Pershing Drive and on VA Route 27/Washington Boulevard between Columbia Pike and N. Pershing Drive in Arlington County. Your feedback will help your local leaders determine whether to pursue future funding opportunities.
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.

Background
The focus of this study is to improve the grade-separated interchange at US Route 50/Arlington Boulevard and VA Route 27/Washington Boulevard in Arlington County. Virginia's Transportation Plan, VTrans, has identified needs, including safety, pedestrian and bicycle access, and congestion, in the study area.
This survey is intended to obtain public input on the alternatives under consideration to address the identified needs and issues that were identified by the study team and through the previous Phase 1 survey that was conducted in August 2023.
This interchange has experienced a high number of rear-end crashes at ramp entrances and exits. Capacity preservation has been identified as important for the interchange; therefore, the proposed safety improvements are focused on ways to mitigate negative impacts on traffic flow and other operational characteristics throughout the corridor.
