The FY24 HRMPO Dinkel Avenue-Friedens Church Road Study was led by VHB to evaluate the Dinkel Avenue/Friedens Church Road corridor between I-81 Exit 240 in Rockingham County and Main Street (Virginia Route 42) in the Town of Bridgewater to develop a vision for the corridor matching anticipated future development.  This corridor runs 3.28 miles through Rockingham County from I-81 Exit 240 to Main Street (VA-42) in downtown Bridgewater. HRMPO goals for this study were to align the future projected land uses of this corridor with the transportation infrastructure by balancing multimodal needs with existing freight traffic and other demands. This study was completed as a companion to Rockingham County Comprehensive plan updates that occurred during the same time period.
