Route 15 in Lucketts is not the right place for a truck weigh station...it will negatively impact our traffic and is against the agricultural and historical nature of our town.
Why is this important?
The truck weigh station as proposed for Lucketts, Virginia is inconsistent with our desires and the impact on our traffic poses a safety hazard to our families. Although the desire to secure additional revenue is understood, the negative impact to our citizens, community and scenic Route 15 is not.
We ask that you abandon this project immediately. Instead, we ask that any tax dollars available be used to implement the improvements set forth in the proposed Lucketts Safety Plan, such as sidewalks , turn lanes and crosswalks. Introducing this level of mayhem to our fragile transportation corridor while simultaneously exposing us to safety issues and added pollution is unacceptable. This is hallowed ground. The Route 15 bypass near Leesburg where inspections are already taking place would be a more appropriate location.
