Cooper PTO News
Because
Cooper is located right next to the Northbound I-495 Georgetown Pike Ramp, we
wanted to remind everyone about the upcoming meeting:
VDOT Meeting to
Limit Access on the Northbound I-495 Georgetown Pike Ramp
Thursday, Sept. 13,
7:00pm – McLean High School
Join
the Virginia Department of Transportation and Fairfax County for the second of
two community meetings Thursday, September 13, 2018 – 7:00pm at McLean High
School on efforts to identify potential congestion solutions for
neighborhoods off Georgetown Pike near I-495 (the Capital Beltway). VDOT
and Fairfax County staff will be on hand to answer questions. (McLean High School, 1633 Davidson Road, McLean, VA 22101)
Over
the last year, VDOT and the County have been working with residents as part of
a traffic study to address neighborhood access and congestion concerns. VDOT
and the County are seeking input on some of the longer-term proposals, including
a potential pilot project to evaluate limiting access to the ramp from
Georgetown Pike to northbound I-495 during weekday afternoon/evening periods.
Following public input, VDOT would work with the County and stakeholders on the
design and schedule for longer-term improvements.

more details, as well as meeting materials following the meeting.
Please
send comments to meetingcomments@vdot.virginia.gov, and
include “McLean Area Traffic Analysis” in the subject line.
REMINDER: September 19th will be a 3 hour early release day. School will end at 11:15 am.
