The existing two-lane section was widened to a four-lane, median-divided roadway. New parallel bridges carrying Belmont Ridge Road over the Washington and Old Dominion (W&OD) Trail were also completed, eliminating the existing at-grade crossing. Additionally, a new parking lot was designed for the W&OD Trail with a rest area including picnic benches and landscaping. More than 3,200 linear feet of noise barriers were installed, and shared-use paths were constructed for the entire length of the project on both sides of the road.

The $46-million contract included field surveys, engineering, right-of-way acquisition, utility relocation, environmental permitting, construction, quality assurance, and quality control. In addition to providing survey, engineering, and environmental permitting services, Dewberry also performed construction engineering and inspection for the project.
