"The Richmond area's western growth corridor is starting to take shape...Observers also point to many other projects farther away as proof of the highway's muscle in spurring growth, even before it is open to traffic...The easy access to jobs on the region's northwestern edge is expected to turn Midlothian into Chesterfield County's fastest-growing community during the next seven years."
