(National Park Service) The National Park Service is planning to put parts of Northern Virginia’s George Washington Memorial Parkway on a “road diet,” the agency says, reducing the number of travel lanes on the southern part of the route. Opened in 1932, the parkway was built by the federal government, designed as a “commemorative pilgrimage route to Mount Vernon as a memorial to George Washington,” the Park Service said in an April report outlining its latest plan. The report, which focused on a six-mile span between Alexandria and Mount Vernon, said the Park Service is seeking to improve the road while “maintaining the Parkway scenic and historic character.”
