As announced at The Oakton’s Annual Meeting of Homeowners, Dominion Paving & Sealing Inc. was contracted to mill, repave and re-stripe the asphalt roadway and parking areas. We ask for your patience and understanding while this work is underway. Garner Engineering was hired to evaluate the asphalt, write the statement of work, and to oversee the project to ensure the work is done properly per specifications.
The schedule listed for the projects is weather permitting therefore as needed, the work days will shift.
Trash & Recycling: Starting on Monday, July 6 curbside pick-up will not be available throughout the project. Trash Away placed dumpsters by the front entrance of the community and residents must use the dumpsters for trash and recycling during the project.
- If towed, contact Henry's at 703-280-5336. Henry's is located in the Merrifield area of Falls Church, VA at 2810 Hartland Rd.
Parking: It is important to adhere to the no parking areas during the project and to have your vehicle(s) registered with the 2026 yellow parking permit clearly displayed on the vehicle’s windshield (see the Parking Policy for permit placement).
Vehicles parked in no parking areas will be towed by 7AM. The tow driver will search for search for permits located on the windshield, not other windows/locations. Towed vehicles with a yellow 2026 parking permit will be relocated within the community. Towed vehicles that do not have a 2026 parking permit (or if it is not on clearly displayed the front windshield) will be towed offsite to Henry’s Wrecker Service in Falls Church, VA.
As a reminder, parking is available on a first come, first serve basis. Vehicles are allowed to park in spaces anywhere in the community and during the project you will see vehicles from another part of the community park near your building.

- During the two (2) days scheduled for the phases listed above, all vehicles must be moved out of the parking areas by 7 AM each day when work is scheduled.
- Vehicles parked in previous/completed phases may either remain parked or moved from the areas until work is complete for the day as access to previously completed phases will be extremely limited.
- Vehicles may park as usual after the milling work (removal of the existing asphalt) is completed for the day but must be removed by 7 AM the following day for paving activities.
Vehicular Traffic: No traffic will be allowed on the parking lots and roadways during work hours. Please abide by all traffic control personnel, barricades and signs; they are for your safety!
- Please be aware that vehicle access during all the work phases will be impacted. If residents are expecting a delivery (via FedEx, UPS, Amazon, etc.), a contractor to work on their home, moving in or out from the community, etc., vehicles may not be able to reach your building. Please plan ahead and refer to the Phasing Schedule and Map to find out when the asphalt project will impact your area.
- The work area at Phase 5 spans from the community’s entrance to building 4 and vehicles will not be able to enter or leave the community during the Phase 5 workdays.
- Mail may not be delivered to the mail kiosk during Phase 5 unless the mail carrier elects to walk to the mail kiosk to deliver the mail.
Trash & Recycling. Curbside pick-up will not be available during the project. Trash Away will place dumpsters by the front entrance of the community during the concrete and asphalt project. Residents must use the dumpsters for trash and recycling during this project. Trash Away will not be picking up trash and recycling from the curbs. Do not put your trash and recycling out on the curbs during the project.
- During Phase 5, trash collection will not take place, and the dumpsters will be removed. Do not put your trash out during Phase 5.
Parking: All vehicles must be out of the affected streets/parking areas by 7 AM on days when work is scheduled. Vehicles not moved by 7 AM will be towed at the owner’s expense.
- It is important to have your vehicle(s) registered and the 2026 yellow parking permit clearly displayed on the vehicle’s windshield (see the Parking Policy for placement). The tow driver will not search for permits located on other windows/locations. Towed vehicles with a 2026 parking permit will be relocated within the community. Towed vehicles that do not have a 2026 parking permit (or if it is not on the front windshield) will be towed offsite to Henry’s Wrecker Service.
Pool: The contractor will determine if the pool needs to be closed on some days during the asphalt project. If closed, a notice will be posted at the pool and on The Oakton’s website.
Pedestrians & Pets: Please stay off the asphalt while the section is closed.
- Walking through tack coat (wet tar) will result in tracking of the product onto concrete sidewalks and into your home. This is costly to clean and is not the responsibility of Dominion Paving & Sealing nor the Association.
- Please keep in mind that after the road and parking areas has been milled but before it is paved, the surface will be rough and uneven.
- Please use caution while walking across the milled surfaces.
Weather: All dates are weather dependent. In the event of rain, Dominion Paving & Sealing will postpone the project for that day, and they will determine the new work date(s). Signs will be posted with the new work dates.
Website: Work dates will be posted on The Oakton’s website calendar and on the “About The Oakton” web page which is open to the public—a login is not needed to reach these sections. The website address is www.theoakton.com.
