Reston Network Analysis: 2050 1st Tier Mitigation ResultsFairfax County
The document summarizes the results of a traffic network analysis for Fairfax County, Virginia through 2050. It finds that without mitigation, 24 intersections will operate at unacceptable Level of Service F during morning peak hours in 2050. Implementing optimized traffic signals and signal timing reduces this number to 11 intersections. The analysis identifies locations for new traffic signals and evaluates lane reallocations and signal retiming as low-impact "1st tier" mitigation strategies. Further "2nd tier" strategies requiring more right-of-way will also be considered, such as adding turn lanes. The results help transportation planners identify needed improvements to maintain adequate mobility as development occurs through 2050.

Policy on Level of Service in Activity CentersFairfax County
The document discusses a recommendation to change the level of service (LOS) standard from LOS D to LOS E for activity centers in Fairfax County, Virginia. LOS measures traffic flow on roadways, with higher letters indicating more delays. The recommendation aims to create a more pedestrian-friendly environment in activity centers by allowing more delays. While increasing congestion, it would reduce infrastructure costs and better support transit and non-motorized travel as outlined in the county's policies. Several local and national jurisdictions already apply LOS E in dense, transit-oriented areas. The staff recommends approving the change to LOS E for activity centers through an amendment to the Transportation Policy Plan.

Board of Supervisors Transportation Committee-Next Steps for Urban Street Sta...Fairfax County
The Fairfax County Department of Transportation presented next steps for developing urban street standards. The standards will focus on creating walkable, low-speed urban environments within activity centers and accommodate all transportation modes. Fairfax County is working with VDOT and DRPT to develop the standards for use statewide. Fairfax will designate activity centers and priority transportation modes on a multimodal system map. It will then develop recommended road cross sections for approval over the next year. The new standards aim to implement the County's comprehensive plan with fewer design exceptions.
Phase 1 construction is nearly complete, with all stations over 98% finished except Wiehle-Reston East. System testing and punch list activities are ongoing ahead of the anticipated start of passenger service in December. Phase 2 design is progressing, with over half of design packages received and the maintenance facility procurement process beginning. The project remains on budget at $2.906 billion for Phase 1.
Potential Fairfax County Photo Red Light ProgramFairfax County
The document discusses Fairfax County's consideration of re-establishing a photo red light (PRL) program. State legislation now allows PRL programs if safety requirements are met. Other localities in Northern Virginia currently have PRL programs ranging from 2 to 7 intersections. A new PRL program would require engineering studies of selected intersections and approval from VDOT. A previous Fairfax County PRL program from 2000-2005 reduced red light violations and crashes but increased rear-end crashes. Most local PRL programs had higher costs than revenues, though societal benefits were not fully accounted for.

Fairfax County Parkway Trail at Dulles Toll Road EB Ramp Improvement StudyFairfax County
The Fairfax County Department of Transportation studied options to improve safety at the crossing of the Fairfax County Parkway Trail and the eastbound on-ramp to the Dulles Toll Road. Two options were considered: (1) an at-grade improved crossing with new signals and markings or (2) a bicycle/pedestrian bridge over 700 feet long. The study recommended the at-grade option due to lower cost and preserving funding for other improvements. A public comment period was opened to gather feedback on the options, with the goal of completing construction before the opening of the Silver Line Phase II.

Reston Network Analysis: Transportation Advisory Commission: July 19, 2016 Fairfax County
This document summarizes a study conducted by the Fairfax County Department of Transportation on the transportation network in Reston, Virginia. The study analyzed the existing transportation conditions and forecasted future conditions in 2030 and 2050. It evaluated a proposed grid of streets and recommended mitigation measures to improve traffic flow. The analysis found that without mitigation, 24 intersections would operate at unacceptable levels of service in 2050. The recommended 1st tier mitigation measures like signal timing optimization and additional turn lanes reduced this to 13 intersections. The 2nd tier measures such as adding through lanes and turn lanes further reduced problems to 10 intersections. The study recommends further analysis of specific intersections and developing a phasing plan for improvements.

Merrifield Nursery Emergency Gravity Sewer ReplacementFairfax County
During a routine Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) Camera inspection by Wastewater Collection Division (WCD), it was found that 45 linear feet of 8-inch asbestos reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) between MH-292 to MH-291 was within imminent danger of failing.

After an immediate pre-construction meeting with Merrifield Nursery, it was agreed to work from 6pm-10am everyday of the week to avoid disruption and potentially placing patrons at risk during the biggest time of the year for Merrifield Garden Center. The contractor mobilized to the site and began the 20-foot excavation to replace 45 linear feet of broken gravity sewer. The project started on March 14th, 2022 and was substantially complete on March 23, 2022.
