What is the Prince William Parkway at Minnieville Road Interchange Project?
The Prince William Parkway at Minnieville Road Interchange Project consists of constructing a grade-separated interchange at Minnieville Road (Route 640) and Prince William Parkway (Route 294).
The proposed interchange will be a Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI) with Prince William Parkway traveling under Minnieville Road. The project will improve capacity at the intersection, which has heavy through and turn movements. It will also accommodate the Prince William Parkway at Minnieville Road Interchange increase in future traffic due to the proposed development of a multi‐use, walkable neighborhood commercial center with surrounding residential use, known as the Quartz District, on the 145‐acre site in the northwest quadrant of the intersection.
The project supports the county’s Comprehensive Plan which identifies the intersection of Prince William Parkway and Minnieville Road as a proposed interchange location. It will be administered by the county under a VDOT Extraordinary Land Use Permit (ELUP) with the purpose of relieving existing and proposed traffic congestion as well as accommodate an increase in future traffic.
The project is expected to achieve final completion in twenty-six months from the issuance of NTP to the Contractor.
