Monticello Freeway

The Monticello Freeway was a planned freeway that was a part of the 1969 Northern Virginia Major Thoroughfare Plan.[1] The proposal was to connect Arlington directly to Manassas[2] as an Interstate, hence its name freeway.[citation needed] The plan overall was turned down[3] due to environmental, preservation, and financial issues.[citation needed] Parts of the freeway would have been where Braddock Road is located.[2]
