What if a major road project were underway\u00a0in Ashburn, but no one noticed<\/strong>? That\u2019s (sort of) what\u2019s happening with Claiborne Parkway, but nearly two months after works started, The Burn stopped by and it looks like\u00a0things are moving\u00a0quickly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Technically, the expansion of Claiborne is from Croson Lane near Broadlands south to Ryan Road near Brambleton. When completed in late summer 2018<\/strong>, it will provide an alternative to Belmont Ridge Road for north-south travel in Ashburn and link north of Route 7 all the way south to Brambleton, Loudoun County Parkway and (eventually) all the way to South Riding and Route 50.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But Claiborne already extends a little past Croson. The work really starts at Ravenglass Drive. Since no one drives down to the end of the road unless they\u2019re going into the Windermere neighborhood, most people passing by don\u2019t see the construction. And it will remain mostly out of sight. Ultimately, your best view may be from busy Ryan Road looking north.<\/p>\n
