See Yourself at the Visualize 2045 Open House
The National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board will be hosting a series of Open Houses in September to dive deeper into its long-range transportation plan, Visualize 2045. The Open Houses will give attendees the chance to explore the draft plan and learn about the region, major projects, and analysis. The Open House for Fairfax County will be on Monday, September 17, 2018, from 4:00 - 7:00 pm at the Virginia Department of Transportation’s Northern Virginia District Office at 4975 Alliance Drive in Fairfax.
FABB encourages members to attend the open house to advocate for improvements to the Visualize 2045 plan. The proposed National Capital Trail (Initiative 7) does not go far enough in offering a bold future vision for a regional trail network. It actually fails to extend into Fairfax County!
We need to speak up and fix this. The Open House will be an excellent forum to advocate for an expansion of the trail initiative to include more of our region's planned trails. The Capital Trails Coalition has a collaboratively developed methodology and criteria for including trails in a regional trails plan that FABB recommends to the planning board.
