New pinch point on MVT under Wilson Bridge

Also the lip from the road to the trail in front of the bollards is way too high for those on skinny tires since you are hitting it at an angle. Be careful!

Thanks dbb, a picture speaks a thousand words. Just bad in every conceivable way. What were they thinking? Guess they weren’t thinking. In that last photo, what is the point of the bollard all the way to the right? It is almost in the grass.

The bollard nearest the grass is also nearest the graveyard. Anti-zombie bollards perhaps?

I’ll offer a post later about the other bollards that seem to be Alexandria’s decision rather than VDOT’s.

My uninformed assumption is that that “lip” will mostly disappear when the roadway is finally repaved. Or is that just wishful thinking?
