Burke Centre VRE Connector Phase IV

Project News and Updates

Burke Centre VRE Connector Phase IV is under construction and is scheduled to be completed in January 2022.

Project Background

The new pedestrian/bicycle facility will include the following:

• A 1,200 ft. long asphalt trail through the wooded area north of Oak Bluff Court. Retaining walls and an open drainage system are required along this stretch to accommodate the trail. The trail will connect to the western terminus of Premier Court. 
• A 600 ft. long concrete sidewalk along the south side of Premier Court. Other improvements in this area include curb and gutter, new pavement, parking modifications and on-road bike lanes.  
• A crosswalk that will connect pedestrians from the new sidewalk on the south side of Premier Court to an existing sidewalk on the north side of Premier Court. On-road pavement markings will be added to Premier Court from the crosswalk to the Burke VRE Station.
