A VDOT official updated the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors on Aug. 10 about current road work and maintenance priorities.
David Clark, speaking for the Virginia Department of Transportation, said the county’s six‑year secondary construction plan includes paving about 0.75 of a mile of Taylor Hollow as part of the segment approved by the board; future phases will follow in subsequent years. Clark also described a one‑day closure required for a large pipe replacement on Walton Road at Route 114 and said crews have been focusing on pothole patching, mowing primary routes, and addressing storm‑related tree damage in several southern parts of the county.
Supervisors asked for follow‑up on local trouble spots, including brush covering warning signs on Mount Pleasant and Allegheny Springs roads, requests for brush clearing on Popsicle Road and Camp Cary Brook, and concern about a single‑lane bridge near the railroad that may need more permanent repair. Clark said VDOT crews will follow up, that mowing and patching crews may be shifted as needed, and that traffic‑maintenance plans for larger projects (for example at the Bridal Fork intersection on Route 114) will be developed and shared with the county.
"They may have to flag it at certain times, but they'll mostly just have to do lane shifts," Clark said of construction at the Bridal Fork intersection. Supervisors also asked about emergency‑vehicle access and school‑time traffic; Clark said traffic engineers considered those factors while devising maintenance‑of‑traffic plans.
No county action was taken; staff committed to follow up on site visits and to request VDOT details for specific problem roads.
