The Pedestrian Advisory Committee (PAC) advises the County Manager and the County Board on implementation of the pedestrian element of the Master Transportation Plan. The Committee takes up other matters important for realizing Arlington’s vision of a safe, efficient, and equitable transportation system for all.
The Committee’s volunteer members help keep the County focused on making Arlington a better place to walk, from the high-rise urban centers of Rosslyn, Ballston, and National Landing to the leafy residential areas of north, south and west Arlington.
Meetings
Arlington County’s PAC holds monthly virtual meetings during the coronavirus public health emergency. The Committee meets monthly, every second Wednesday, from 7:00 – 9:00 PM unless otherwise noted.
