In Design: Tysons/Old Meadow Road Bike/Ped Improvements in Fairfax County

This project, in cooperation with Fairfax County, will build a pedestrian and bicycle bridge and shared-use path in the vicinity of Route 123 and I-495.

Improvements include a new 10-foot shared-use path from near Tysons One Place and Fashion Boulevard to Route 123 and Old Meadow Road via a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge over I-495. The path will mostly follow Old Meadow Road.

Based on results of the preliminary engineering phase of the study, and extensive community outreach and input over the last several years, the "Option 2" alignment was selected for final design.

Estimated Costs
Preliminary Engineering - $2.3 million
Right of Way Acquisition and Utility Relocation - $2.6 million
Construction - $8.5 million
Total - $13.4 million

This project is financed with federal, state and local funding.

Benefits 

The project aims to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety and connectivity in the Tysons area.
