I’d like to know what the county and/or VDOT is waiting for to install a traffic light at the intersection of Waxpool and Ashburn Village Blvd.? Haven’t there been enough accidents or near accidents at that intersection? The traffic at the height of rush hour coming from the Toll road towards Ashburn has consistently been up to 45 cars waiting to go through a 4-way stop sign. People now are resorting to turning left, only to turn around and go back to the same intersection, so they can beat the long line crossing Waxpool…. This then causes a back up in that direction. It appears that traffic on Waxpool, crossing over Ashburn Village Blvd is backed up quite a bit, too.
I know they are building new townhouses there, as well as the now completed Gold’s Gym.
This just seems ridiculous to wait for the Morley’s Corner complex to be completed. And now they have started clearing the way for more townhouses or extended shopping center on Shellhorn and Ashburn Village Blvd. Is it going to take more accidents or even fatalities to get this going? I certainly hope not. People just want to get home and it’s aggravating, especially when it seems that some drivers act as if they aren’t sure what to do when they get to the front of the line…... I’m sure I’m not the only one concerned and frustrated.

VDOT is a joke. There were many other 4 way stops in ashburn where major accidents occurred. Most finally have lights. It amazes me how many people don’t know what to do at a 4 way stop. Meanwhile….VDOT is probably off driving around somewhere in virginia just wasting time. I always see the trucks or VDOt people standing around, they’re good at that.
