FABB’s March Meeting Focuses on Lee and Mount Vernon Districts
FABB encourages all of its members to join us for our regular meeting on the third Wednesday of each month. In March, we will be covering the Lee and Mount Vernon Districts as we start at the usual time of 7:30 p.m. on March 21, 2018, at the Community Meeting Room of the Mount Vernon Government Center at 2511 Parkers Lane in Mount Vernon. A representative of the Fairfax County Department of Transportation will be there to provide an update on ongoing plans to add bicycle infrastructure to the districts. We also will be hearing from a staff member from Lee District Supervisor Jeff McKay's office and, tentatively, from Mount Vernon District Supervisor Dan Storck.
This meeting will be a great opportunity for local cyclists and other residents to get updates on projects such as the EMBARK Richmond Highway Project. There also will time for questions and answers as well as opportunities to raise issues about bicycling and networking with other multimodal transportation options in the district. See you there!
