About the Project
The City of Fairfax adopted the Kamp Washington Small Area Plan in 2022. This project is included in the plan to improve the biking and walking connection between the commercial destinations on Route 29 and the Westmore neighborhood south of Park Road. The path and landscaping improvements will be installed in the right of way owned by the city, adjacent to the Fairfax Junction shopping center parking lot.
The preliminary concept was developed in 2023. On Sept. 12, 2023, the city council unanimously endorsed the city’s FY24 Transportation Alternatives Applications for the Fern Street Pedestrian/Bicycle Connector Path. The city has received the funding and is developing the final design for construction. Transportation Alternatives is a federal grant that provides 80% of the funding ($285,119). Local transportation funding will fund the 20% match ($71,280).
