Why I-95 Matters

I-95 is one of the most important regional transportation corridors in Northern Virginia. It carries commuters, freight, long-distance traffic, military-related travel, and local South Fairfax trips.

Congestion or operational issues on I-95 can quickly affect nearby roads, including Route 123, Lorton Road, Fairfax County Parkway, and local access routes into Lorton, Springfield, and Fort Belvoir.

Connection to TAC

The I-95 Corridor shows why TranspoFairfax tracks not only construction projects, but also recurring operational and monitoring concerns. Some of the most important transportation issues are not single projects; they are patterns that affect multiple communities over time.

A future TAC database can help track congestion patterns, related projects, affected communities, agencies involved, and archived observations.
