Construction Work Scheduled at Mount Jefferson Park/W&OD Greenway

City begins work this week to open a new pedestrian entrance to park and greenway.

The Alexandria Department of Recreation, Parks and Cultural Activities will begin site work to open a new pedestrian entrance to Mount Jefferson Park/WOD Greenway at the end of Stewart Ave. (Randolph Ave. intersection). Currently the end of Stewart Ave. is fenced off and does not permit entry into the park.

Work includes removal of existing chain link fence, guardrail, and vegetation, and installation of new split rail fence, trail, and restorative plantings.

Depending on the weather, work was set to begin this week and will be completed within three weeks. The Stewart Avenue entrance will be closed during construction.
