Fairfax County considers adding Capital Bikeshare stations along I-66 corridor

Fairfax County is exploring a plan to expand Capital Bikeshare along the I‑66 corridor.

Local leaders say the move could help relieve some of the traffic many people deal with in northern Virginia.

The proposal would add up to 17 new stations stretching from Fairfax and Fair Lakes to the Dunn Loring Metro Station.

County transportation officials say the project would be funded through an I‑66 Commuter Choice Grant from the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission. 

The Dunn Loring station was Capital Bikeshare’s busiest location last year, highlighting the demand in the area. The expansion is one of three proposals in the works. Additional details and maps are expected to become available as the process moves forward.

A virtual public meeting on the I‑66 corridor proposal is scheduled for 7 p.m. Wednesday.
