Voice Your Opinion: Nelson County Road Improvements Public Hearing Set for May 14

The Nelson County Board of Supervisors, in partnership with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), will hold a public hearing on May 14, 2024, at 7:00 pm. The hearing will take place in the General District Courtroom at the Nelson County Courthouse, 84 Courthouse Square, Lovingston, Virginia. The purpose is to collect public feedback on the proposed Secondary Six-Year Plan for 2025 to 2030 and the Secondary Road System Improvement Priority List for 2025.

At the hearing, participants can review and comment on the plans, which aim to improve and maintain secondary roads in Nelson County. These projects qualify for federal funding and will be added to the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) to ensure proper use of federal funds.

The proposed Secondary Unpaved Road Priority List for 2025 includes key routes such as Spring Valley Rd. from Rte. 616 to its dead end, North Fork Rd., and Pigeon Hill Rd. These roads are vital for local travel and will be improved to better serve Nelson County residents.

Residents can review the detailed plans and budgets before the hearing at the Nelson County Administrator’s Office or the Appomattox VDOT Residency Office. This ensures transparency and promotes informed participation.
