Inspections are done on a first-come, first-served basis. Participants should install the child safety seat themselves so the inspection can be performed. The seat will be properly re-installed if necessary and parents will be taught how to install the seat properly. Everyone is eligible. Another car-seat inspection is scheduled for March 14, at the same place and time.

Take Route 29 Corridor Survey
The Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) is launching a transportation study of the Route 29 corridor between Buckleys Gate Drive and Summit Drive near the Fairfax County Parkway and Jermantown Road. It plans to reassess the long-term needs of the corridor and develop solutions – including multimodal options – that best serve both residents and commuters. 

As part of the study, FCDOT is gathering public input via an online survey which will help shape future decisions. Community members may take this survey at https://engage.fairfaxcounty.gov/b0183 or leave a recorded message at 703-890-5898, Project Code 3941. 

Public comments will be accepted this way until the close of business on Friday, March 1. FCDOT will then present the survey results at a virtual public meeting on Tuesday, March 12, at 7 p.m. For more information, go to the project Website at https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/transportation/study/route29.
