Fairfax facing massive transportation shortfalls

Fairfax County is looking at a more than $2.2 billion transportation funding shortfall during the next three years, according to figures recently released by the Board of Supervisors. The estimated funding gap will balloon to more than $5 billion during the next 10 years.

BRAC-related projects and other area road and transit initiatives — including Tysons Corner improvements — will rack up roughly $4 billion in costs between fiscal 2011 and 2013, according to the projections.
