Project details
The Fontaine/Sunset Connector is a proposed road to connect Fontaine Avenue in the City of Charlottesville with Sunset Avenue/Old Lynchburg Road in Albemarle County. The road was one of the recommendations of the Southern Urban Area B Study in September 2004. While the road is still in the conceptual stage, the expected alignment traverses the Granger Property and the University of Virginia's Fontaine Research Park. The $12,800,000 project includes a bridge over railroad tracks.
The County, City and the University of Virginia will all take place in the negotiations to construct this proposed connector. As such, the primary forum for negotiations is the PACC.
The Fontaine/Sunset Connector is currently priority #8 on the County's Six Year Plan for Secondary Roads for Fiscal Year 2009.[1]
Status
This project is part of the Southern Urban Area B Study. Planning is currently in the conceptual stage.
