PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY -- Now called a zombie road after the Prince William County Board of Supervisors removed it from the county's comprehensive plan, David Birtwistle, of the Northern Virginia Transportation Alliance, urged officials to bring back the Bi-County Parkway.
The Alliance, known for championing road projects in the growing sections of western Northern Virginia, said the road would allow the George Mason University Science Center outside Manassas to boom, attract new employers to the county, and provide better access to Dulles International Airport.
The Bi-County Parkway, as envisioned in 2013 when it was being considered and hotly debated, would carry vehicles from Interstate 95 in Dumfries in Prince William County northwest on Route 234, over I-66, across a portion of the Manassas National Battlefield Park, and to Dulles Airport in Loudoun County.
