DULLES GREENWAY AND SHIRLEY CONTRACTING COMPANY ANNOUNCE START OF CONSTRUCTION ON LEESBURG BYPASS IMPROVEMENT PROJECT

24/7 Emergency Hotline Available for Construction-Related Issues

Sterling, VA (April 9, 2021) – Toll Road Investors Partnership LP II (TRIP II) owner of the Dulles Greenway and Shirley Contracting Company, LLC today announced that construction on the Leesburg Bypass Improvement Project will begin by April 16, 2021, with tentative completion date of May 1, 2022. This project aims to increase roadway safety and reduce congestion on the State Route 7/U.S. Route 15 Bypass at its interchange with South King Street.

The project involves a reconfiguration of the exit ramp from the westbound bypass to northbound South King Street (Route 15), including a retaining wall on the north side of the exit ramp. The improvements also provide a continuous third westbound lane on the bypass between the Greenway and the South King Street interchange. All exit and entrance ramps will remain open during construction. Shirley Contracting Company, LLC has established a 24/7 emergency hotline for commuters providing information on construction-related issues occurring during construction. The hotline is: 703-447-5183.

Drivers should use extra caution when traveling through this area and follow all directions from the posted signs and road crews. Additionally, the Dulles Greenway and Shirley Contracting will provide advance notice about lane closures to all stakeholders through the Dulles Greenway website and social media.

“With construction beginning on the Leesburg Bypass project, we are eager to alleviate congestion for our commuters,” said TRIP II CEO Renée N. Hamilton. “We will work alongside Shirley Contracting LLC to provide as many updates on the process and timeline as possible to ensure smooth navigation for everyone during the construction period.”

TRIP II joined a tri-party agreement with Loudoun County and the Town of Leesburg to approve the project designed to relieve congestion at the west end of the Greenway. Funding for the project was provided by Loudoun County and TRIP II. TRIP II will manage the construction and design implementation on behalf of Loudoun County.

For more information regarding construction and updates please call 703-707-8870 or visit https://www.dullesgreenway.com.
