Former Stafford County Hartwood District Supervisor Joe Brito has proposed building a new road that would connect five separate roadways west of Interstate 95 with a new four-lane highway.

The conceptual highway would run north to south and would include connecting Mine Road and Route 610 (Garrisonville Road) to Centreport Parkway. Also, part of the idea contains a reconstructed Berea Church Road, which would join to Celebrate Virginia Parkway and would cross the Rappahannock River and connect to Carl D. Silver Parkway in Fredericksburg, and would end at Harrison Road in Spotsylvania County.
