The Prince William Parkway is a road in Prince William County, Virginia. The road carries two designations. Starting in the east at the intersection with U.S. Route 1 (US 1) in Woodbridge to the west until intersecting with Dumfries Road (Virginia State Route 234 or SR 234) south of Manassas, it carries State Route 294 (formerly SR 3000). At Dumfries Road, the Prince William Parkway assumes the SR 234 designation until ending at Interstate 66 (I-66) near Gainesville. Most of the route is a suburban at-grade expressway.

History

View west along SR 294 in Buckhall

SR 294 from I-95 to Dumfries Road was built by Prince William County in the mid-1990s. The SR 234 portion from Dumfries Road to I-66 was built by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) in late–1990s as a bypass of the old SR 234 through Manassas. The existing portion of SR 234 was renamed SR 234 Business. The last portion of the Prince William Parkway, an extension of SR 294 from I-95 to US 1, was built by Prince William County in 2005. On February 16, 2012, the former route designation for the Prince William Parkway, SR 3000, was changed to SR 294 by VDOT when the Commonwealth Transportation Board approved the transfer of the secondary road to a primary road for better maintenance of the parkway.[1] Signage has been updated to reflect the new numbering along with "old SR 3000" signs.

Honorary names

The SR 294 portion from I-95 to its intersection with Liberia Avenue and SR 663 (Wellington Road) has been designated the Kathleen K. Seefeldt Parkway for Kathleen Seefeldt, the former chairman of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors. The SR 234 portion from Dumfries Road to I-66 has been designated the Ronald Wilson Reagan Highway for Ronald Reagan.

Future

SR 234 and Balls Ford Road interchange

Como parte del proyecto Transform 66, la actual intersección a nivel de SR 234 y Balls Ford Road se convertirá en un intercambio de diamante divergente con un costo de $167 millones. Como parte de este proyecto, Balls Ford Road se realineará aproximadamente 0.50 millas (0.80 km) al sur, donde se construirá el intercambio, y se construirá un nuevo puente separado del nivel sobre la línea ferroviaria Norfolk Southern. Además, Balls Ford Road se ampliará de una calle de dos carriles a una carretera dividida de cuatro carriles entre su intersección en Devlin Road / Wellington Road, pasando por el intercambio, hasta Doane Drive. Este proyecto coincide con otro proyecto independiente para ampliar Balls Ford Road entre Doane Drive y Ashton Avenue. Se espera que la construcción comience en otoño de 2020 y finalice a finales de 2022. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ]
