The Falls Church City Council voted to adopt a formal bicycle master plan as a guiding document, advancing the policies previously adopted in the Mobility for All Modes Transportation Plan approved over a year ago. An important feature of the plan is the determination that removal of on-street vehicular parking spaces will not be included, which relieves a major point of contention from earlier versions of it.

Development of the plan has been spearheaded by Senior Planner Paul Stoddard.
