Tysons/Old Meadow Road Improvements Workshops in November
 |
FABB members in the Tysons area should make plans now to attend two upcoming workshops. The good news is that the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is designing a bicycle/pedestrian facility in the vicinity of Old Meadow Road and I-495 in the Tysons area. To get additional input on design elements from the community, VDOT will be holding two design workshops next month.
The plan includes a shared-use 10-foot-wide asphalt path along Old Meadow Road from Route 123 to a bridge crossing over I-495 near the intersection of Tysons One Place and Fashion Boulevard. Community input is needed on the design details including security, screening, aesthetics, lighting and architectural treatments that can be accommodated within VDOT standards and the project budget.
The first workshop will be on Thursday, November 9, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm at the
Westgate Elementary School, 7500 Magarity Road, Falls Church.
The second one also will be at Westgate Elementary and will be held on Tuesday, November 28, from 7:00 to 9:00 pm.
If you have any questions, contact the project manager, Abi Lerner, by email at Abraham.Lerner@VDOT.Virginia.gov or by telephone at 703-259-3345.
