Find out about a project to enhance safety, increase capacity and improve traffic flow
at the intersection of Route 24 (Hardy Road/Bypass Road) and Route 634 (Hardy
Road) in Vinton. The project entails replacing the current signalized intersection with
a one-lane roundabout with three slip lanes. The entrance to the bank property at the
intersection will be moved about 110 feet west and a new bank exit will be added on
Roop Street. Crosswalks with median islands will be added to Bypass Road and
Hardy Road and new sidewalk will be constructed to tie into the existing pedestrian
accommodations. During construction, southbound Bypass Road traffic that currently
turns left onto Hardy Road would be detoured for approximately four to six months.
Review the project information and the National Environmental Policy Act document
in the form of a Programmatic Categorical Exclusion at the public hearing or after the
public hearing at VDOT’s Salem District Office located at 731 Harrison Ave, Salem
VA, 540-387-5353, 800-367-7623, TTY/TDD 711. Please call ahead to ensure the
availability of appropriate personnel to answer your questions.
The hearing will be held in an “open-house” format and VDOT representatives will be
present to answer questions. Property impact information, relocation assistance
policies and tentative construction schedules are available for your review at the
above address and will be available at the public hearing.
