Frederick Road Extension alignment across Waldorf Astoria site
Fredericksburg
Summary
The council approved a new conceptual route for the future arterial road across the 405 Goehmann Lane property, swapping the old Thoroughfare Plan line for one that fits the resort development. Neighbors raised concerns about floodplain fill, drainage into Barron Creek, curves near Goehmann Lane, and safety and turn lanes. Final terms come in the annexation and development agreement expected within about 60 days.

Impact analysis
Extra costs for elevating the road, the Barron Creek crossing, and possible four-lane expansion are expected to be addressed in the development agreement.
The Waldorf Astoria development moves forward, and neighboring businesses expect a tourism boost; property owners east of the old alignment see the road moved off their land.
Neighbors along the new route — including the Crenwelge and Feller properties — face a busy road closer to their homes and worry about safety and flooding.
