The story
Chesterfield County launched a study in January 2026 to evaluate intersection design alternatives at Fox Club Parkway and Village Square Parkway. The project was initially focused on a roundabout design, but community feedback prompted county officials to expand the evaluation to assess multiple intersection solutions beyond the roundabout.
The county's Transportation Department is now comparing different configuration options to identify the most suitable design for the location. The study is anticipated to be completed by the end of 2026. Residents with questions about the project can contact Hong Lim at 804-748-1037 or Limh@chesterfield.gov.

The case for
A roundabout design would improve traffic flow efficiency and reduce conflict points at the intersection, potentially enhancing safety compared to conventional signalized approaches.
The case against
Roundabouts can require significant land acquisition and construction costs, may be unfamiliar to some drivers, and could create challenges for certain vehicle types or traffic patterns during peak periods.
Why it matters: The intersection design will affect traffic flow, safety, and vehicle access at a major intersection in the Midlothian area, with implications for commuters and nearby facilities like Cosby High School.
