Open House Meeting on South King Street and Route 7/15 Bypass Improvements Scheduled for November 12
The open house format meeting will be held from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the lower-level conference rooms of Town Hall.
Leesburg, VA (October 30, 2026) – An open house public meeting on the South King Street and Route 7/15 Bypass interchange improvements project will be held from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, November 12, in the lower-level conference rooms of Town Hall (25 West Market Street).
The overall project consists of preparation of an Interchange Access Report (IAR) to investigate potential improvements to the interchange, design plans and construction of improvements to the existing grade-separated interchange on South King Street and the Route 7/15 Bypass. The existing grade-separated interchange at this location is heavily congested and, due to its age, is not equipped to handle current or future traffic volumes. This project is included in the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority’s TransAction 2040 Plan.
Information about the purpose, process, and scope of the IAR will be presented during the open house meeting, including what the study will address when complete. Attendees are encouraged to provide verbal or written comments about their experiences and priorities related to traveling along South King Street, the Route 7/15 Bypass, and the surrounding transportation network so these can be included in considerations for design.
The project team will also share how community input will be used in developing the final recommendations for the IAR.
