Board designates Green Chambers Road a Rural Rustic Road to preserve rural character
Summary
The Board adopted a resolution requesting that VDOT designate Green Chambers Road (Route 642) as a Rural Rustic Road under Code of Virginia Section 33.2-332 and asked that surfacing and improvements preserve adjacent trees, vegetation and rural character.
The King and Queen County Board unanimously adopted a resolution on Jan. 10 designating Green Chambers Road (Route 642) — a 0.30-mile segment from Route 360 to Route 628 — as a Rural Rustic Road under Section 33.2-332 of the Code of Virginia. The resolution noted the road is in a low-density area, has no pending development expected to change traffic significantly, and is included in the Board’s six-year plan for secondary road improvements.
The Board requested that the VDOT Residency Administrator concur with the designation and that any hard surfacing or improvements to the road be done within existing right-of-way and ditch-lines to preserve adjacent trees, vegetation, side slopes and the rural character of the corridor to the fullest extent prudent. A certified copy of the resolution will be forwarded to the Virginia Department of Transportation for concurrence.
