For our western trail users: Dominion Energy contractors will be clearing vegetation around distribution poles from Leesburg to Ashburn for the next two weeks starting today. Short detours or stoppages may be required, so please be aware when in this area.

For our trail users in Falls Church: Beginning Aug 24, continuing to Sept 11, Ffx Co. Water Authority will be installing a new water main near the intersection of Fowler St and Railroad Ave. Boring will occur near and under the trail, but there will be no detours or delays.

For trail users in Sterling, please be aware that from next Monday, August 10, through Weds, August 12, Dominion Energy contractors will be clearing vegetation around distribution poles on the east side of Sterling Blvd. Please watch for flaggers and follow their instructions.

For those of you who travel the trail near Vienna: Be alert for short detours to the gravel trail and brief stoppages of no more than 15 minutes, starting now and lasting into September, as Dominion Energy removes *inactive* poles between Caboose Brewery and Northside Park.

For trail users in Arlington: Mobilization for Sparrow Pond maintenance work will begin this week and next, starting with installing construction fencing to separate the access path from the W&OD trail. Please exercise caution when in this area! arlingtonva.us/Government/Pr…

Our thanks to Boy Scout Troop 997 and Cub Scout Pack 997 for helping to clean up the trail between Pacific Blvd and Ruritan Circle this past weekend!
