Board approves VDOT request to move small segment of old Route 58 into secondary system

Washington County Board of Supervisors · November 26, 2024

Summary

At the request of VDOT, the board approved a resolution to move a roughly 0.1‑mile segment of old Route 58 from the primary to the secondary system, enabling the county later to discontinue that segment if desired; VDOT staff said the section appears to serve more than two properties and recommended transferring the right‑of‑way.

Rachel Brown, representing the Virginia Department of Transportation, briefed the board on a highway system change for a small section of old Route 58. She said the Commonwealth Transportation Board recommended moving the right‑of‑way into the secondary system rather than discontinuing primary right‑of‑way because the section appears to serve more than two properties.

"It's the section... it's 0.1 of a mile," Brown said, explaining the change and that after the transfer the board could consider discontinuance if appropriate. Supervisor McCall moved to approve the resolution and to authorize the county administrator to sign the paperwork; the board approved the motion by voice vote.

Staff directed the clerk to include the mapped section in the resolution and confirmed the item is color coded in the board packet for reference.
