Status
Complete
This project was completed as part of 2019 repaving work.
About the Project
As part of routine spring repaving work within the County, staff are looking at restriping options to improve multimodal safety and connectivity along 5th Road South. The proposed restriping plan will include:
- Better delineation of markings
- Standardize travel lanes to 11 feet
- Formalize parking areas, with attention to sight distance near Carlin Springs Elementary School
- Formalize a bike lane in the eastbound and westbound direction with a buffer
As part of their spring repaving, Fairfax County is repaving and restriping the adjoining section of 5th Road South. They will include similar roadway enhancements to those indicated above.
