Some spring-break travelers at Reagan National Airport had to scramble for alternate parking last month after all available spots filled up.
Airport officials expect the same situation on high-traffic days throughout the summer and are urging drivers to make reservations to ensure they get a parking spot.
A year into a project experimenting with parking prices, the divide between the most and least expensive street parking in Arlington continues to widen.
The latest round of changes increases the prices of 29% of parking spots included in the program, but decreases the cost of 12% of parking spaces.
Repairs are coming to a decades-old water main tunnel under I-66 near Virginia Square, bringing parking restrictions and closing some basketball courts.
The Hayes Park basketball courts will be closed for about three months and parking will be restricted on 15th Street N. and part of N. Lincoln Street starting the week of March 10.
Plans for more public seating, real-time transit displays and a new food truck court are included in a proposed changes to a highly trafficked area in Courthouse.
Respondents have until Sunday, March 2 to provide feedback on a new concept design for the “mobility hub” near the Court House Metro station. This area includes the Arlington County government headquarters at Courthouse Plaza, Strayer University, The Commodore Apartments and the county’s large surface parking lot.
Can’t find parking at Reagan National Airport? Pentagon City’s mall may have a solution.
The Fashion Centre at Pentagon City is advertising its parking spots to travelers as substantial parking reductions go into effect at the nearby airport.
A sizeable portion of Reagan National Airport’s economy parking lot will be closed for construction starting next week.
Beginning Monday, about 850 of the parking lot’s 2,680 spaces will be unavailable, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority said in a press release. Construction is expected to continue into 2026, and at its peak, up to 1,100 of the lot’s spaces will be displaced.
County Board members on Saturday (Dec. 14) rebuffed a staff-proposed increase in trespass-towing fees across Arlington, opting to keep the base rate at $135 for passenger vehicles.
At the same time, Board members followed a staff recommendation in rejecting — for now — a “second-signature” requirement before any tows can occur.
Arlington County Board members appear disinclined to impose a “second-signature” requirement on property owners having improperly parked vehicles towed from their properties.
A final vote won’t take place until Tuesday evening (Nov. 19), but county staff have recommended that Board members follow the recommendation of the government’s Trespass Towing Advisory Board, which unanimously recommended against a requirement that there be a real-time signature before a tow can take place.
Some say requiring real-time, in-person authorization of tows from private property is a needed consumer protection.
Others, however, believe it can endanger those working in local retail outlets, apartment-management offices and other front-line businesses.
Looking for a parking spot on N. Glebe Road? Be sure to read the signs.
A roughly 0.7-mile section of the road is home to Arlington’s lone “rush hour zones,” portions of the roadway where drivers may only park outside of hours of peak road congestion.
Arlington’s Trespassing Towing Advisory Board (TTAB) thinks “booting” illegally parked vehicles might, in some cases, be preferable to towing them.
County Board members appear to disagree.
New signs have appeared in Courthouse indicating changes in how much it costs to park.
The signs stand at the intersections of N. Courthouse Road with 13th Street N. and Clarendon Blvd with N. Barton Street, indicating both the number and price of available parking spots in real time.
