How are contractors supposed to gain access to the footers prior to the letting?
Answer
Date:
4/1/2025 8:19:25 PM
The footers can be accessed from the gravel road that parallels the north footers from Varina Rd. The gravel road is west of I-295 and is owned by Henrico County. There is a gate that will need to be unlocked to get access to the gravel road. Contact the Project Manager at 804-609-5225 a few days prior to coordinate a day and time to have the gate unlocked.
