County Hosts Meeting on Hopkins Road Improvements

TL;DR: Chesterfield County will host a public meeting October 13 to discuss planned improvements to Hopkins Road and its interchange with Route 150.

The story

Chesterfield County Transportation will host an informal public meeting on Tuesday, October 13, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Hopkins Road Elementary School to discuss planned improvements to Hopkins Road and the Route 150 interchange. The meeting will use an open house format, with project information on display for public review and comment.

The improvements under discussion cover Hopkins Road between Meadowdale Boulevard and Beulah Road and include a road diet project at the Hopkins Road/Route 150 interchange. The county secured a federal RAISE planning grant to fund the design of these improvements. A final draft report was submitted to the Virginia Department of Transportation in December 2025, with the study anticipated to be completed in early 2026.

Residents can attend the meeting in person to view project displays and provide feedback, or submit comments through an online survey by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. For questions about the project, residents can contact Alexandra Castrechini at 804-748-1037 or castrechinia@chesterfield.gov.
