Meadows of Dan
Officials broke ground Sept. 29, 2021 at Meadows of Dan on a $300 million project to widen 7.4 miles of U.S. 58 to four lanes.
Gov. Ralph Northam spoke at the groundbreaking at Fred Clifton Park in Meadows of Dan. The project, expected at the time to be finished by spring 2026, calls for widening 7.4 miles of U.S. 58 over Lovers Leap Mountain to four lanes. The Enterprise's report credits former Gov. Gerald Baliles, a Patrick County native, with starting the project.
