Fairfax is getting 22 new bike lanes in 2015
When Fairfax County repaves roads this summer as part of routine maintenance, it’s going to add bike lanes and other features to some of them.
Here’s the complete list of Fairfax streets that will get new bike facilities in 2015:
Among all the roads due for repaving this summer, 22 will get bike lanes or sharrows. Some of the additions are coming as part of road diets.
Adding bike infrastructure to roads that are going to get a new coat of paint either way is a very cheap way to make Fairfax more bike-friendly. Of course, if this were the only way the county added new bike lanes, it’d take quite a while for them to show up on recently repaved roads.
The projects are spread throughout the county, but Tysons is getting some special attention as the county takes another step in its planned transformation of the area.
VDOT’s website says residents will begin seeing the new paint—and lanes— in June.
