Hillsdale Drive Extension

This $15 million project alleviated traffic from the Route 29 corridor north of Charlottesville by completing a connection between Rio Road and Hydraulic Road, east of Route 29. Hillsdale Drive was extended by 1 mile and included a new traffic signal, a roundabout, 3600 feet of shared-use path, 5800 feet of sidewalk, and a 160’ bridge over a stream. The project started in June of 2016 and opened December 22, 2017, and included almost 10,000 tons of asphalt and over 43,000 tons of stone.
