UPDATE: City of Alexandria to Present Preferred Design Options for Mount Vernon Avenue North Improvements

The City of Alexandria will present preferred design optionsfor the Mount Vernon Avenue North Complete Streets Projectat the Traffic and Parking Board's April 29 Public Hearing. The recommendations were developed after years of engagement with neighborhood residents and adjacent property owners on mobility, safety, and access issues along the corridor. Changes are proposed at the intersections of Mount Vernon Avenue at Glebe Road, Russell Road, Executive Avenue, and Four Mile Road.

The purpose of the Mount Vernon Avenue North project is to improve safety at key intersections on Mount Vernon Avenue, which was a recommendation of the 2021 Arlandria-Chirilagua Small Area Plan. The project also supports the City's Vision Zerogoal to eliminate fatal and severe traffic crashes.

The proposed alternatives maximize safety benefits while minimizing impacts to traffic operations and parking. More information on the process, design options, and preferred alternatives can be found on the project webpage.
