In full
Key addresses along the boulevard include 3740 Blenheim Blvd (Stacy Sherwood Center), 3730 Blenheim Blvd (City of Fairfax Police Headquarters), and 3315 Blenheim Blvd (site of a School Board retreat). The corridor has been touched by several distinct projects: (1) the Willard Sherwood Health & Community Center (WSHCC), whose Blenheim Blvd-facing side received an ADA-compliant ramp addition following PRAB's suggestion (noted November 2024); (2) a Blenheim Blvd Bridge capacity constraint identified in June 2025 as a factor in floodplain conditions for adjacent properties; (3) a CIP submission for Blenheim Blvd Tunnel Lights (lighting to be installed in a tunnel), submitted in February 2026; and (4) a Blenheim Boulevard Multimodal Improvement Plan, presented to the School Board in September 2026 and covering the stretch in front of Fairfax High School, including a proposed amphitheater on school grounds. The multimodal plan is the most active and unresolved thread as of the latest material, with a School Board recommendation to City Council pending.
