BRISTOL—The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will hold an online public meeting this month for a proposed roundabout project in Smyth County.

The proposed roundabout will be constructed at the intersection of U.S. Route 11 and Route 660
(Railroad Drive) in Smyth County. Roundabout projects have been found to enhance safety, improve traffic flow and cost less to build and maintain when compared to a traditional intersection.

The meeting will be held May 27 beginning at 5 p.m. with a brief presentation followed by a question and answer session. The meeting can be accessed from the following link: https://www.virginiadot.org/Route11RoundaboutSmythCounty .
