Soapstone Drive's regularly scheduled repaving could mean a traffic and safety facelift for the Reston road beginning this summer.
Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) officials and Hunter Mill Supervisor Cathy Hudgins said at a community meeting at Terraset Elementary School on Monday that "this is an opportunity to take advantage of the repaving schedule of VDOT."
Hudgins said in October that proposed changes to the road could cost $3 million and that Fairfax County was unsure of how to pay for the project. By having VDOT make the changes as part of the scheduled repaving, that cost would be covered. The county will later pay for the $1.5 million sidewalk improvements, said Hudgins. . . .
