The Pentagon has freed up $20 million in previously approved funding for short- and mid-term road improvements at the Mark Center, the future home of 6,400 Defense workers.
U.S. Reps. Jim Moran (D-Va.) and Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), and Sen. Jim Webb (D-Va.) and Sen. Mark Warner (R-Va.) requested the funds on behalf of Alexandria in January. The city has struggled to find funding to make road and transit changes to offset the impact of the Army’s relocation, mandated by the Base Realignment and Closure plan.
