citizens, the business community, the Reston Association,
and the Reston Town Center Association.
• Provided Fairfax County Transportation staff with input
and feedback on the Reston Network Analysis and
associated plans (such as the Reston Funding Plan).
• Worked to shape future grid of streets within Reston
TSAs, mechanisms, and timing/prioritization for project
funding.

Transportation Follow-on Motions:
• Conduct a detailed evaluation and
operational analysis of the enhanced street
network shown on the Reston Master Plan,
prioritize these improvements, and develop
an implementation strategy.
• Develop an inclusive process to prepare a
funding plan for the recommended

Reston Funding Plan Project Priorities
The Reston Network Analysis prioritized the Roadway
Improvements in three general timeframes.
• This was necessary, because the County does not
control the pace or location of development.
• Reston Transportation Plan and development will
need to be monitored annually.
• The plan is dynamic, so that it can respond as the
areas of growth change within Reston.
• Based on FCDOT’s current assessment of future
development patterns in Reston, the projects in
the transportation plan were divided into the
following three categories:
Tier 1
• Soapstone Overpass
• Town Center Underpass
• Reston Parkway Widening (Dulles Toll Road to South Lakes Drive)
• Fairfax County Parkway Widening/HOV (Entire Length from Route 7
to I-66 and beyond)
Tier 2
• Sunrise Valley Drive/Fairfax County Parkway Interchange
• South Lakes Overpass
• Fox Mill Widening (Reston Parkway to Monroe Street)
Tier 3
• West Ox Road Widening (Lawyers Road to Centreville Road)
• Monroe Street Widening (West Ox Road to the Town of Herndon)
• Pinecrest Extension

seasonally adjusted) as reported
by the United States Department
of Labor, or Bureau of Labor
Statistics.
• Proposed Rate Adjustment is
1.9% based on the CPI-U
increase over the last 12 months
for the month ended December
2018. New road fund rates are
proposed to be effective April 1,
2019.
