The 1994 Arlington
Bicycle Transportation Plan included 37 proposals for new
or improved bicycle facilities. In the intervening [12] years the County has made
progress or
completed most of those projects and has subsequently added other bikeway
proposals to the
amended master plan. One project included in the plan, which has not been acted
upon is the
Route 110 south trail paving and upgrade. In
FY2003, Arlington was able to secure a federal
CMAQ grant to pay for 80 percent of the work involved to grade, pave, enhance
the crossings,
and install new signage and landscaping along the trail.
An unpaved trail currently exists along the east side of Route 110. It's frequently used by Pentagon employees and visitors and the county plans to upgrade it to a paved trail. This project is still in the design phase, but the design is moving forward.
