Erickson Avenue Stone Spring connector opens second segment
Harrisonburg officials opened the second of four segments of the Erickson Avenue Stone Spring Road connector, inching the project to completion 25 years after origin. The new section runs between South Main Street and Stone Spring Road, with a traffic light at South Main and Stone Spring now active. An additional signal will be added at Stone Spring and Beery roads in February. Pleasant Hill Road is closed to through traffic between South Main and Beery. Architects say the 10,900 average daily cars this year will reach about 15,000 by 2030, easing congestion at Pleasant Hill and Huffmar streets.
