The Newington DVS Maintenance Facility is a 91,000 SF single story vehicle maintenance facility with 38 vehicle maintenance bays, a paint booth, and wash bay located on a twenty five acre site in the Mount Vernon District in Fairfax County. The project entailed construction of a new maintenance facility immediately adjacent to the existing facility, which was required to maintain operations during the construction activities. Along with the maintenance functions, the new facility also includes a two-story administration wing housing the facility managers, a large lunch area for the employees, locker and toilet rooms, a separate waiting area for bus drivers to rest between runs, and a training/conference room sized for up to 100 employees.

The facility incorporates numerous sustainable components and the most advanced technological features in the building’s infrastructure, such as an integrated energy management system, solar-tracking skylights, waste oil boilers, rainwater harvesting system, lighting control and communications. The facility is fully accessible for patrons with disabilities in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
