    Hi,

    I am not sure if all the commuters feel the same way , is there a way we can ask the VA-DOT to increase the signal timing on Wax pool turning at MCI (towards 28 ).

    The lane to right is backed up all the way till MCI building in the morning (between 7:30-8:30) the signal hardly green (I know its free right turn but the amount of ttraffic on Ashburn farm pkwy is too much)

    Please let me know your comments

    I'm seeing more and more cars staying on the center lane and making a right ... to get around the long lines of cars waiting to make
    a right turn .... :(

    perhaps they should make 2 right turn lanes... I wonder if that land there is being developed anytime soon...

    is it just as bad on Loudoun County Pkwy and Ashburn road to make a right onto Waxpool/Farmwell during the AM?

    As one who uses the Waxpool light to cross LCP, I think the light is too short for north/south traffic. The backup starts well before Ashburn Village Blvd. You shouldn't feel so bad.

    The whole thing is a mess...I work at AOL and have had to adjust the time I leave the house now just so I don't have that traffic on Waxpool to deal with. I now leave the house at 6:45 a.m. Kinda sad when you work only five miles from home.:(

    They are still working on Waxpool; I wonder if it will clear things up in the end? Let's hope!
