New Online Tool Shows County Projects on Map

A new tool provides a map view of various projects being undertaken by Arlington County government.

Known as the “My Arlington — Projects Map,” it is a collaboration between several county departments. It shows projects in transportation, parks, water and utilities facilities and private development, as well as daily work being done.

More on how the tool works from a county press release:

  • Projects can be filtered by type and status
  • You can look up projects based on your address or civic association
  • Addresses in and around Arlington produce the best results (some smaller-scale projects may not be included)
  • Most projects are removed from the map once they’ve been complete for one year
  • The map is updated several times a day
  • It links people with more detailed project information already online

The tool does not include projects by the Virginia Department of Transportation, Washington Gas, Dominion Power, Arlington Public Schools, or other non-county government entities. In the future, more information will be added. Map data will also soon be viewable on the My Arlington mobile app.
