What a disaster. Fairfax county lives in its own little world that building dense development will alleviate it from fixing the current capacity problems. I see no solution to fixing Gallows Road, how bad it gets during rush hour or now all hours with the construction going on. It isn't as if these new residents and businesses will all be served by rail - and even adding one more car to gallows is crazy.
The dense development around the metro needs to be in conjunction with fixing the road network - instead, they are merely increasing the problem rather than solving anything.
