Fairfax County’s 2026 Roadway Restriping Program is underway—and now is the time for residents in Hunter Mill, Providence, and Dranesville districts to weigh in on proposals that could shape your neighborhood streets for years to come.
On Tuesday, October 7 at 7 p.m., the Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) will host a virtual public meeting to share draft proposals for new bike lanes and crosswalk improvements in your district. These proposals are part of the annual roadway repaving program led by VDOT and coordinated with FCDOT to improve safety for everyone who walks, bikes, and drives.
The restriping program is one of the most cost-effective tools Fairfax County has to expand the bike network and improve pedestrian safety—but only if residents like you speak up.
Here’s a preview of what’s on the table for your district:
Hunter Mill
- Proposed bike lanes on Fox Mill Road between Frying Pan Road and Sunrise Valley Drive
Providence
- Bike lanes on Arrowhead Drive and Rosehaven Street between the Jermantown Road loop
- Bike lane and crosswalk improvements on Hilltop Road between Cedar Lane and Route 29
Dranesville
- Bike lanes on Sayward Boulevard between Carta Way and Sunrise Valley Drive
Don’t miss this opportunity to advocate for safer, more connected bike routes in your community.

Resurfacing provides a rare chance to improve biking conditions without major construction costs. But if the public doesn’t speak up, these opportunities can be lost or watered down. Even modest improvements—like narrowing travel lanes or adding striping buffers—can make a big difference in safety and comfort for riders of all ages and abilities.
If you ride in Hunter Mill, Providence, or Dranesville—or if you’d like to see Fairfax County do more to prioritize active transportation—please take a few minutes to review the proposals and share your input.
Your voice helps move Fairfax forward, one lane at a time.
