City Council Votes to Close Lane at Busy Intersection During Rush Hour
F.C.’s Citizens for a Better City May Vote to Withdraw from Historic Role
Despite their own warnings about potential hazards to public safety and traffic congestion, the Falls Church City Council voted Tuesday night to impose a one-week trial in early December of a plan to block off auto traffic lanes at the heavily-traveled intersection of Routes 7 and 29 (Broad and Washington).
In what could be the single most momentous change in Falls Church municipal politics in half a century, the premiere civic association, the Citizens for a Better City, is on the verge of dropping its long-held historic role of vetting, nominating and campaigning for slates of candidates running in local races.
