    Please join us for Good Morning, McLean, presented by Freedom Bank. We will be happy to feature briefings on two Fairfax County initiatives pertinent to the local business community. 

    First, Bobby Mahon will start us off with a short presentation about Talent Up Fairfax, a program designed to connect Fairfax County employers with qualified talent. Next, we will welcome Dan Stevens from the Fairfax County Department of Transportation, who will discuss the background, status, and next-steps regarding McLean Community Business Center Pilot Study. 

    This is a great opportunity to learn about and influence the prospective changes for downtown McLean with regard to pedestrian and bike accessibility, street design, and lower vehicle speeds, and to discover how Talent Up Fairfax can connect your business or non-profit organization with skilled workforce options at little cost.

    Join us in-person for networking and the opportunity to promote your business/non-profit to fellow attendees.

    The McLean Community Business Center Pilot Study aims to improve the walkability and bikeability of downtown McLean by studying the implementation of traffic-calming measures such as reduced speed limits, narrower travel lanes, downtown street parking, and the elimination of dedicated right-turn lanes. The study will focus on two key corridors: Old Dominion Drive and Chain Bridge Road. Traffic analysis will be conducted at six key intersections to assess the potential impact of these proposed changes.
