Capital Bikeshare is expanding in Fairfax County, with 27 new stations – the largest expansion in the program’s history – scheduled for installation beginning in early May. The expansion will introduce new stations in Annandale, Bailey's Crossroads and Seven Corners, bringing new, affordable travel options to more communities. Additional stations will also be added in the Belle Haven and Huntington areas, and along the Mount Vernon Trail.

Work at each site is expected to be completed in a single day, weather permitting. Once a station is installed and powered, it will be stocked with bicycles and opened to the public shortly afterward. The new Capital Bikeshare stations will be installed at the following intersections:
