Starting the week of August 25, the North Sycamore Street entrance to the north parking lot at East Falls Church Metro will close for the duration of construction.
Sidewalks, bus bays and crosswalks will remain open during this initial work. As the project evolves, be aware of closures on sidewalks as curbs and sidewalks are reconstructed.
About the Project
This work is part of the East Falls Church Bus Bays Expansion project, which will improve and add new shelters on the bus loop, and implement pedestrian and signal improvements in the project area.
To learn more about the project, visit the East Falls Church Bus Bay Expansion page.
How much do you think about parking?
Do you check on the parking situation on Google maps before going to an
event? Then debate between a garage near your destination or walking the length of a sunbaked parking lot?
In "Paved Paradise: How Parking Explains the World," Slate staff writer Henry Grabar uses a beguiling and absurdly hilarious mix of history, politics, and reportage to brilliantly survey the nation’s parking management, revealing how the compulsion for car storage has exacerbated some of our most acute problems.
To kick off the program, the County's Parking and Curb Space Management team will host an Open House to learn more about the next phase in the Parking Performance Pilot project in Arlington. The author conversation will be followed by an audience Q&A and book signing.
Registration Recommended: First-come, first-served seating. By registering, you will receive event updates.
