Why aren’t the Bulldog Way improvements being done by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT)?

The proposed road improvements to Bulldog Way are to add additional turn lanes to improve the flow of vehicles going to and from the current and future school facilities. Ensuring adequate turn lanes for access to a facility is the responsibility of the developer of the facility and not VDOT. Accordingly, the improvements to Bulldog Way are not the type of improvements that VDOT would undertake or fund, but have to be provided by the School Division. The funds earmarked for transportation improvements will not only provide sufficient turn lanes to ensure safe access to the new Goochland Elementary School, but also additional turn lanes and parking lot improvements to provide for better traffic flow at the Middle School/High School complex.
