Future Stream Restoration Projects

Help guide future stream restoration projects in Fairfax City.

The city recently completed a comprehensive assessment of Accotink Creek. The project team walked the entire stream and all its tributaries. Recorded observations included stream bank erosion, riparian buffer conditions, floodplain connection, and many more characteristics.

The data identified seven locations for potential future stream restoration projects:

• Country Club Hills
• Daniels Run Park
• Fair Woods Parkway
• Dale Lestina Park
• Fairfax Circle
• Fairfax City Property Yard at Pickett Road
• Accotink Creek north of Fairfax Boulevard

The project team presented their findings at a public meeting on May 15 and gathered initial feedback from the community about the proposed project locations.

Priority areas based on public feedback.
