FABB is aware of the proposal and the Ashgrove connection. I was a member of the Tysons task force and during our 5 years of meetings I consistently stressed the need to retain and improve that connection. It’s also included in the Tysons bike plan. I testified before the Planning Commission in favor of a much lower impact exit ramp from the Toll Road that wouldn’t destroy the stream valley park. Even if the proposed exit ramp is built, the Ashgrove connection will remain.
The most effective action you and anyone concerned about this can take is to attend the Board of Supervisors public hearing on the Tysons Transportation Funding Plan on Oct. 16 and voice your concern. Funding for the proposed ramp is included in the Funding Plan. You can also write to the Board of Supervisors.
Thanks, I’ll put that meeting in my schedule & let you know how it played out.
