Public input sought on pedestrian bridge from Crystal City to Reagan National Airport

ARLINGTON COUNTY, Va. - Arlington County and the Virginia Department of Transportation are asking for more public input on plans to build a pedestrian bridge from Crystal City to Reagan National Airport.

The two options include Alternative 7D - a bridge between the future VRE Crystal City Station and the airport and Alternative 9D - a span between 2231 Crystal Drive and Reagan.

Structurally, the Alternative 7D bridge would be a girder bridge, except across the George Washington Memorial Parkway where it would be an arch bridge. The Alternative 9D bridge would be a girder bridge along its entire length.

Residents can offer feedback online until November 6.

A virtual public meeting will be held on October 25 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Comments can also be emailed to info@cc2dca.us.
