Working Together to Improve Route 5

Welcome to the Route 5 Corridor Study website! This site is dedicated to providing the area's citizens, business owners, civic leaders, and the general traveling public with information and regular updates about the Route 5 Corridor Study. The development of this important long-range, multimodal transportation plan will define the way Route 5 carries vehicles, transit, bicyclists and pedestrians in the City of Richmond and Henrico County for years to come.

This corridor study extends along Route 5 from 7th Street in downtown Richmond to S. Laburnum Avenue in eastern Henrico County. To view a larger map of the corridor study limits, please click here.
