BURKE, VA — Burke Lake Park's 4.7-mile trail around the lake will get a facelift starting in late July. According to the Fairfax County Park Authority, the loop trail will remain open when repair activities will begin around July 27.
Repairs will include replacing culverts, milling existing asphalt trail, overlaying existing asphalt trail with new asphalt, and shoulder restoration along the trail section from the marina to the ADA fishing piers. The work is expected to take 10 to 14 days, weather permitting.
Trail users should expect significant disruptions crews are working. The contractor performing the repairs will direct visitors around the work area when possible. At times, visitors may be asked to stop temporarily while work is happening.
