Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) will hold a second paving and restriping meeting focused on two proposed bike lanes and marked crosswalks in Lee District on Wednesday, June 15, at 6 p.m.

Farmington Drive: FCDOT and VDOT are proposing to add a bike lane and shared street markings between Telegraph Road and Edgehill Drive.

Fordson Road: FCDOT and VDOT are proposing to add bike lanes between Richmond Highway and Mount Vernon Plaza. The proposal would restrict most on-street parking south of Cyrene Boulevard. Existing on-street parking as well as the commercial vehicle parking restrictions will remain north of Cyrene Boulevard. New crosswalks across Fordson Road are proposed at Cyrene Boulevard and at the McDonald’s/Mount Vernon Plaza entrance.

The additional projects, which originally had been deferred for consideration until next year, are now possible due to a lower re-bid on the paving contract. If approved, these roads would be repaved between September 2022 and June 2023.

For those who wish to participate but cannot attend, the meeting will be recorded and posted on the project webpage after June 15. Comments and feedback will be accepted through June 29, 2022.
