Fox Mill Road/Pinecrest Road​ Interchange Improvements Planned By VDOT

HERNDON, VA — Virginia Department of Transportation is hosting a virtual public hearing on Wednesday to answer questions about planned improvements at the Fox Mill Road and Pinecrest Road intersection.

On an average day, 13,000 vehicles travel through the intersection on Fox Mill Road compared to 2,400 vehicles on Pinecrest Road, according to 2019 data.
