Falls Church Gateway Partners (FCGP) have begun installing conduit to run dry utility lines undergrounding. Conduit has been installed along Mustang Alley and is in progress along Haycock Road. Undergrounding work is expected to last through February 2020.
Construction on the West End Sanitary Sewer and Mustang Alley Connector Sewer projects will start in January 2020 through June 2020. The new sewer line is designed to accommodate increased flows from the new George Mason High School and future development project at the corner of Haycock Road and W Broad Street / Route 7.
Drivers should expect traffic delays around the construction project until June 2020, including lane closures on Haycock Road and Shreve Road. You may wish to seek alternate routes. Read the letter to residents living near the project.
The purpose of this project is to reduce congestion near the George Mason High School Campus, future Little City Commons development, and the neighboring West Falls Church Metro Station in Fairfax County. Project activity will be at or near the Chestnut Street and W Broad Street/Route 7 intersection, Haycock Road and W Broad Street/Route 7 intersection, and Haycock Road and Schools’ Access Road intersection

This project is funded through a $15.7 million dollar Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA) grant. Learn more about NVTA funded projects in the City of Falls Church and neighboring jurisdictions.
Construction of the underground utility conduit will continue through May 2020. Sanitary sewer installation will continue through June 2020.
The timing of project design and construction will be coordinated with the new High School construction and future Little City Commons development.
City staff expects that design, engineering, and environmental work related to the streetscape improvements and new signals will begin in Fiscal Year 2021, with construction beginning in Fiscal Year 2022.
