The Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT) Northern Virginia Paving Program improves hundreds of miles of roads in Fairfax County every year. VDOT and the Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) use this program as an opportunity to increase safety for people who walk, bike, and drive with road and crosswalk improvements while minimizing the financial investment in restriping work.
The repaving program can include limited bike lane, shoulder and crosswalk improvements with signage and markings. Bike lanes or shoulders are usually installed where excess pavement width is available. Many factors need to be considered for the installation of crosswalks, including the traffic speeds and volumes, available sight distance, presence of curb ramps, and pedestrian activity.
FCDOT held a public meeting on Sept. 23 to present information on a proposed road diet for Annandale Road between Little River Turnpike and Gallows Road.
FCDOT held a virtual public meeting on Oct. 9 to present information on a proposal to reconfigure Huntington Avenue between Richmond Highway and Telegraph Road.
On April 8, FCDOT and VDOT staff presented on the planned paving and proposed striping improvements to include a proposed bike lane on Dellwood Drive and potential crosswalk improvements.

Information for Residents
- The paving will begin in the spring and conclude in November 2025. Exact work dates are available approximately ten days prior to work beginning, as contractors set schedules based on personnel and equipment availability.
- In subdivisions, "no parking" signs with precise date information will be posted at least three business days prior to work starting.
- Residents can expect work vehicles in their neighborhood during the project.
- Motorists are asked to be alert to temporary traffic patterns. Cars, basketball hoops or garbage cans may need to be temporarily relocated while work is under way.
- Work hours are usually limited to outside of rush hours. Crews typically work on neighborhood streets weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
- On other roads such as interstates and some primaries, work may occur overnight.
