Any expansion of US 29 needs to be run through Louisa and Fluvanna Counties bypassing Albemarle County. This would add some circuity to the route, but construction costs would be lower due to the flatter terrain.
This would take Albemarle County and Charlottesville out of the loop and let these backward thinking politicians choke on their local traffic problems.
