ABSTRACT
This paper deals with a
case study of a context-sensitive
solution of the Jamestown Corridor, located along James City
County and the City of Williamsburg in Virginia. The corridor is an important
passageway to many tourist attractions in the Historic Triangle of Hampton
Roads. During the improvement process, the project should minimize the
congestions impacts, maximize convenience, safety and reliability of the
surrounding transportation systems, minimize social impact to the local
community and address long-term capacity issues. Through the project, the
agencies involved learned that projects near any of the historic resources must be context-sensitive and should
include all stakeholders early and often to make sure that a comprehensive
schedule was developed. They
also learned that time should be considered for review and input from key
regional stakeholders for a variety of issues.
