The City of Fairfax will hold a public hearing on a proposal to implement a road diet on University Drive between Armstrong Street and Sager Avenue. The hearing is on Tuesday, September 29 at 7pm at City Hall, 10455 Armstrong Street. Fairfax, VA 22030. Check the City of Fairfax Public Hearing info page for details.

This section of University is an important bicycle connection between George Mason University and the City of Fairfax. Reducing the travel lanes from 2 lanes in each direction to 1 regular lane and a bike lane in each direction will greatly benefit cyclists traveling between the two destinations.

The project will be evaluated for one year to determine whether or not to make it a permanent change. Cyclists are encouraged to attend the hearing and speak out in support of the project.

To learn more about the project before the public hearing see a copy of the City Council presentation.
