Since the 1970s, Fairfax County has worked towards a comprehensive trail and bikeway network to make it easier to get around Fairfax County by foot or on wheels as well as upgrading streets in commercial areas with attractive landscaping, sidewalk lighting, and benches to improve pedestrian comfort. The information below summarizes the current planned active transportation network and highlights the different ways you can share your thoughts in the map at the bottom of this page.

Current Planned Active Transportation NetworkThis map shows the planned trail and bikeway network from the 2014 Bicycle Master Plan and the 2018 Countywide Trails Plan for informational purposes only and this planned network and proposed facilities will be reviewed and updated during the next phase of the ActiveFairfax Transportation Plan. Please note that the Comprehensive Plan already recommends 5 foot sidewalks as the minimum facility on both sides of all roads in the County.

Planned On-Street Bikeway
On-street bikeways help people on bikes, scooters or other small vehicles navigate the County by providing designated lanes along streets or by taking advantage of the County’s many quiet neighborhood streets that can be safely shared by people and cars. |
Add a Complete Street Improvement to Planned Network
This can include streetscaping, lighting, benches, etc. |
Planned Hard Surface Trail
Hard Surface Trails are wide, paved paths separated from traffic that provide a safe and comfortable place to walk, bike or roll through nature or along roads. |
Use this map to let the County know where you think a new trail/shared use path, bikeway or complete street improvement should be considered for implementation when funding becomes available or development occurs.
