STAFFORD, Va. – Stafford County supports Option C, a proposed new Rappahannock River crossing that promises to reduce traffic and connect Stafford with Fredericksburg, without relying on I-95.
A Bridge Beyond I-95
On June 3, 2025, the Stafford County Board of Supervisors voted to endorse Option C as the preferred route for a new bridge west of the interstate. The plan would link Celebrate Virginia Parkway in Stafford to Gordon Shelton Boulevard in Fredericksburg—one of five routes examined during a federally backed Planning and Environmental Linkages (PEL) study.
