The traffic signals at Lafayette Boulevard and the Blue & Gray Parkway have been modified to accommodate pedestrians, runners and bicyclists using a new crosswalk at the intersection.
The crosswalk was added for the Virginia Central Railway Trail.  Parts 1 and 2 of the trail open Saturday, Sept. 20.   Users of the trail can now activate a crosswalk signal at the Blue & Gray Parkway, just west of Lafayette Boulevard.  When the “Walk” light is on, all traffic across the crosswalk will be stopped.
