Cabell's Mill R-TAP Program.  The CMCA Board of Directors and Traffic Calming Taskforce are proceeding with their ongoing efforts to improve traffic safety in the community for residents and their families, as well as for commuters and the general public.  CMCA has continued to make progress toward improving traffic safety with the cooperation of local public officials and the Fairfax County Department of Transportation. The focus of the traffic improvement is concentrated upon Cabell's Mill Drive between Northbourne Drive and Walney Road.  A plan to improve the flow and safety of traffic through Cabell's Mill has been proposed  by R-TAP program officials, after a thorough topographical survey of the affected streets, intersections and residences. The recommended traffic calming proposal was voted on and approved by the residences in the petition area.

A request was sent to VDOT with an approved map and speed hump was installed and completed in August 2008. (Updated August 31, 2008)
