Resident urges Purcellville to remove Northern Collector Road from town plan
Summary
A Mayfair resident told the planning commission that recent county interchange plans make the Northern Collector Road unnecessary and asked the town to terminate a town-owned right-of-way so the road cannot be extended through Mayfair and into Purcellville.
Harry Lloyd Harding Jr., a Mayfair Community Association resident, addressed the commission during citizen comment urging the town to concur with the Town Council’s proposal to remove the Northern Collector Road from the Purcellville Transportation Plan. "I'm here to express my support for the Percival town council's proposal to remove all reference to the Northern Collector Road from the town of Percival's transportation plan," Harding said, explaining that Loudoun County’s planned interchange at Route 7 and Hillsborough Road will allow uninterrupted east–west movement and negate the need for the collector road through Purcellville.
Harding asked the commission to recommend that the town exercise its legal prerogative to terminate the remaining unexercised right‑of‑way easement (about 7,000 square feet) on Mayfair Community Association property so the town would not be able to extend Mayfair Crown Drive the final ~100 feet needed to link the county road and complete the collector alignment. The public commenter tied his request to local traffic and neighborhood impacts and asked commissioners to consider this action as part of the town’s transportation-plan updates.
Commissioners acknowledged the comment and did not take immediate action within this meeting; staff and commission members noted they will consider how the county’s projects and upcoming traffic studies intersect with the town’s transportation-plan work.
