From Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day, the Virginia Department of Transportation will time signals to help move drivers through major shopping centers around Northern Virginia.
Using traffic data gathered during last year’s holiday season, VDOT developed time- and location-specific signal-timing plans at 222 intersections.
Engineers will also use traffic cameras and traffic sensors to monitor conditions and make adjustments in real time, even on holidays, to help keep traffic moving in especially congested areas such as Tysons and Fair Oaks Mall areas.
Holiday traffic signal timing will be in effect from Nov. 26 through Jan. 1 at the following shopping centers:
Tysons and Galleria Shopping Centers
Reston Town Center
Fair Lakes Shopping Center
Fair Oaks Mall
Springfield Town Center
Potomac Mills Mall
Manassas Mall
Cascades Town Center
Potomac Run Center
Dulles Town Center
Leesburg Outlets
Dulles 28 Centre
Virginia Gateway Shopping Center
