Public Works and Environmental Services Alert:
Funding for the new Gunston Fire Station was approved in the 2018 Public Safety Bond Referendum. The existing Gunston Fire Station was built in the 1970’s and it has exceeded its useful life. The new station’s increased capacity will meet the increased service demand for emergency medical and fire suppression needs of the area which is projected to experience population growth. In addition to the various public services provided by fire stations in Fairfax County, the Gunston Fire Station is tasked with marine rescue for the Pohick Bay area.
The project is located in Mason Neck near Pohick Bay at 10417 Gunston Road, Lorton, Virginia in the Mount Vernon District. The site is bounded by Gunston Road to the south, Pohick Bay to the north, residential single-family homes to the east, and Pohick Bay Golf Course to the west.
The project is currently in the construction phase.
Funding was approved in the 2018 Public Safety Bond Referendum.
