N Veitch Protected Bike Lane
🤠 Y’ALL. There’s a new NEW protected bike lane in town.
🌟 This bike lane on N Veitch helps people move comfortably and safely between Courthouse and the Custis Trail/Route 29 by separating people driving from people biking with parked cars and buffered space.
Thanks to Arlington County Department of Environmental Services for helping us all get around!
Wilson Boulevard's New Protected Bike Lane
🥁🥁 Can we get another drum roll, please? 🥁🥁 Wilson Boulevard from upper Rosslyn to Courthouse now has a protected bike lane!
While Arlington County Department of Environmental Services can't get rid of the hills, separation on the climb from motor vehicles is definitely helpful.
The new section is between N Quinn Street and the alley before the building with the Post Office. Thanks again to Arlington County Virginia – Government for continuing to make walking and biking better!
N Quincy Street's New Protected Bike Lane
🥁🥁 Drum Roll Please 🥁🥁 Ballston has a brand new protected bike lane!
