Fairfax County hosted the Hayfield Road Pipe Project ribbon-cutting ceremony on October 1, 2020, here is the Ribbon Cutting Brochure and the remarks I made at the event.  The pipe underneath Hayfield Road is now completed (ahead of schedule) and fully operational. The landscaping work (trees in the medians; replacements to install native plantings beyond the end of the pipe) and minor adjustments around the plunge pool will be completed this fall, probably in November. This $7 million project will benefit our Hayfield Farm community for the next 50-100 years. While it is infrastructure and largely hidden from view because the pipe is underground, it will serve us during every rain event. In addition the water flowing from this new pipe will be slowed down and filtered as it leaves Hayfield Farm and enters Huntley Meadows Park. The water quality will be improved over what it would have been without this new pipe. The new stormwater pipe under Hayfield Road is a major improvement to our community. The Hayfield Citizens Association, on behalf of our residents, expresses our sincere thanks to Fairfax County and all who worked on this project.  There is a video and a picture from the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Fairfax County website.  The picture (shown here on the right) is captioned on the websiteNew conveyance system outfall, wing walls and plunge pool at the end of Hayfield Road near the Hayfield Swim Club.
