Welcome to Burke Station Square!
Burke Road Realignment Project
The proposed improvements will realign Burke Road and raise the roadway to help improve safety and minimize roadway flooding. The project includes roadway reconstruction, new pedestrian and bicycle connections and replacing the existing drainage pipe to improve water flow below the road. The total project length is approximately 2,200 feet along Burke Road from Parakeet Drive to Peregrine Drive.

Reminder for On-Street Parking
Section 82-5-7 of the Fairfax County Code prohibits parking of commercial vehicles in residential districts. Vehicles parked in violation are subject to a $100 fine for each violation and may be towed at the owner's expense.
Requirement for taxicabs and limousines: One resident of each single family dwelling unit may park one vehicle licensed and registered in the Commonwealth of Virginia as a taxicab or limousine
- Any vehicle licensed as a common or contract carrier or limousine (except as above)
- Vehicles that exceed size and weight limits: more than 21 feet long, more than 8 feet high including appurtenances, width of 102 inches or more, or gross vehicle weight of 12,000 or more pounds.
- Vehicles exempted from these size and weight limits are: commercial vehicles used by public service company, watercraft or motor home, school buses, vehicles driven by or used for transporting persons with disabilities, vehicles for cable television service, moving vehicles for 48 hours, vehicles for propane gas service. These "exempted" vehicles can park in a residential area unless restricted elsewhere in the Code, e.g., boats and motor homes are not allowed to park in areas that are Community Parking Districts
- Vehicle carrying commercial freight in plain view
- Trailer or semitrailer except camper, boat or single axle utility trailer (utility trailer defined as a small non-motorized trailer generally pulled by a motorized vehicle and features an open-top rear cargo area).
- Any vehicle with 3 or more axles
Parking restrictions on service drives: Where a service road is adjacent to a residentially zoned area, parking restrictions apply to the side of the service road that is adjacent to the residential area except as otherwise provided in section 82-5-37(5). This allows prohibiting commercial parking on that side of the street which is zoned for a use other than residential to further the residential character of the abutting community.
The restrictions do not apply to commercial vehicles when temporarily parked while performing work or service.
