Comments:
I expect the cycle track to be replaced with a sidewalk. I also anticipate a free-flowing right turn lane from Northbound Van Buren to EB Herndon Pkwy. Much of the traffic in Herndon are people taking shortcuts to avoid Dulles Toll Rd or FFX Cnty Pkwy. I do not want to see a trade off that makes it easier for drivers to cut through while making it dangerous and difficult to walk or bike to the station.
