The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) wants to hear from Hampton Roads drivers.
On Thursday, VDOT hosted a public hearing at Lake Taylor Middle School, hoping to get feedback from residents on the I-64/I-264 Interchange Improvements Phase III-A Project in Norfolk and Virginia Beach.
Project leaders said the improvements are designed to provide additional capacity, reduce daily congestion along I-64, and improve safety and traffic operations.
At the public hearing, residents reviewed the proposed project plans and exhibits on display and asked questions.

“We really want to get input from the citizens, local community members about our project and explain the preliminary design that we have,” said VDOT Project Manager Claudia Walsh.
This project is located at the I-64/I-264 interchange. Some areas impacted by the project include I-64 between Northampton Boulevard and 1 mile east of I-264 near the Twin Bridges, I-264 between I-64 and the Greenwich Road overpass and the inside I-264 east collector-distributor lanes.
