conclude in November, Dozens of roads, mostly in the Lincolnia, Parklawn, and
Lake Barcroft areas, will be affected. [A full list appears at the end of this
post.] Community members are invited to give feedback on general traffic safety
concerns but VDOT will not add other roads to the list.

set schedules based on personnel and equipment availability. In subdivisions, “no
parking” signs with precise information will be posted at least three business
days before the work starts. Residents might be required to temporarily
relocate cars, basketball hoops, and garbage cans.

So how do you at least get potholes fixed on a decrepit road since they aren't repaving it?

I cannot believe how inept VDOT is. If you at their site and look for their interactive paving map, only the 2017 shows up. Someone should mention to them that we are 3 months into 2018!
Calm down. It's only the title that needs updating, they've got 2018 plans on the interactive map.
Are you certain? At least the links below the maps are titled 2017 and show almost all the roads for paving as shaded blue i.e. "completed".

I have seen the patch quilt job VDOT did on Braddock that recently was paved and am concerned about its longevity. Its better than it was last month when it was littered with huge potholes but it looks really terrible. VDOT use to pave the entire road when it got bad.
In case you can't tell from the people above, this is GREAT news.
Looks more third world to me. But then Mason is third world.
Lol ok bruh
Do third world countries have paved roads.. I have never been to a third world county so I don't know. Asking for a friend.
VDOT needs to crack down hard on those utility crews who seemingly cannot wait to begin digging up repaved roads. They've made an unholy mess of Sleepy Hollow Rd.
Yes third world countries have paved roads that sort of look like the Baileys Crossroads area roads.
This is great news unless you live in the immediate Bailey's Crossroads neighborhoods. Zero neighborhood roads will be getting paved in BC. Congrats to all the areas getting dozens and dozens of roads repaved.
I'll take what I can get but the one road they are doing in Baileys is Columbia Pike and I dont think that stretch is that bad all.
All of Annandale gets 8 small sections of streets paved…while our special communities that are non HOA get NADA.
To Anonymous of 3/10/18 1:25 a.m.,
If your area isn't one that is scheduled to be paved, I sympathize but your comment really isn't accurate.
The streets in Edsall Park – Blacksburg, Hopewell, New Hope, Dublin, Anders Terrace, Montgomery etc. – are not covered by a HOA and are scheduled to be repaved.
If the intent was to say that somehow HOA areas get more attention, the argument falls short in this case. Normally, however, I would agree as it appears, at least anecdotally, that someone on the BoS always seems to throw the non-HOA areas of her district under the bus to be the "beneficiaries" of one of her "progressive" ideas.
