Manassas Park is looking for some state help to free up traffic on its stretch of Route 28.The city is asking for over $18 million in Smart Scale funding from the Commonwealth Transportation Board for intersection changes from Manassas Drive to Spruce Street along Route 28.The plan is to build new 'thru-cut' intersections at Brown Lane and Maplewood Drive, and new 'median U-turn' intersections at Birch and Spruce Streets. Those changes would constitute 'phase one' of what the city hopes is a three-phase project modifying even more of Route 28's intersections, as recommended in the Virginia Department of Transportation's 2020 STARS Study on the corridor.
