For Immediate Release
September 26, 2023
Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) has developed a proposed list of projects that will be narrowed down further with input from the community to receive a portion of $100 million funding allocated by the Board of Supervisors (BOS). To fund safer pedestrian and bicycle facilities, the Board approved $100 million in new funding for one-time investments in pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure through FY 2027. To date, 30.2 million of the dedicated $100 million has been allocated for active transportation improvements and maintenance.
Attend Virtual Community Meetings to Learn How Current List of Projects Was Developed
FCDOT will hold two virtual community meetings to present how the current list of projects was developed, including the methodology and criteria staff used to select projects for consideration. The project list was narrowed down from a list of over 2000 unfunded projects to 317. To further narrow down projects for the third round of funding, public input is sought from the community through an online survey.
