Help develop the purpose and need for the Crystal City to National Airport Multimodal Connection study

The County, in coordination with the Virginia Department of Transportation, hosted a community meeting in July to introduce the Crystal City to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport Multimodal Connection (CC2DCA) study to the public.

 

The study is exploring the possibility of providing a multimodal connection between Crystal City and National Airport designed to meet the needs of people walking, biking, and using micromobility devices.

 

As a first step, we want your input to help define the project's purpose and need.

18th Street South project construction scheduled to begin next month

In June, the County Board approved the award of a contract to Ardent Company, LLC for construction of the 18th Street South Complete Street Project. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in September.

 

This project will rebuild 18th Street South between Fern and Eads Streets in order to continue the existing South Hayes Street protected bike lane further east. The intersection of 18th Street South and South Fern Street will be rebuilt to remove the slip lane and reduce crossing distances.

 

In addition, the project will reduce the amount of impervious surfaces, add stormwater retention, replace a water main and upgrade the streetscape.

 

Watch our video to learn more about the project and what to expect during construction.
