County supervisors and other dignitaries gathered Monday to mark the complete of the newly expanded Belmont Ridge Road between Truro Parish Lane and Croson Lane.
The project turned the two-lane rural road section into a median divided, four-lane suburban road. The 1.5-mile expansion is the last piece of Belmont Ridge Road to be widened between Rt. 7 and Evergreen Mills Road.
The $43 million project was launched in 2017 and paid for by a combination of local and regional taxes, developer proffers, and county bonds.
Del. Kannan Srinivasan (D-26) said he was happy with the completion of the project. “I take this road every day, at least once, if not more than once. And when I came up here today, I could see and feel the difference,” he said.
