FALLS CHURCH – The Virginia Department of Transportation will hold a design public hearing Tuesday, Nov. 12 on the planned replacement of the weight-restricted Sherrow Avenue pipe culvert over Tripps Run with a concrete box culvert.
The existing pipe culvert was built in 1980 and has a weight limit of 13 tons; the new box culvert will not have a posted weight restriction.
The project also includes:
- Widening the culvert-crossing sidewalks from five feet wide to six feet
- Lowering the top of the existing drainage structure to be level with the sidewalk on the south side of Sherrow Avenue
