Description

The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT), in cooperation with the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Town of Herndon and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA), is planning to construct a 23.1-mile transit system in the rapidly growing Dulles Corridor in Fairfax and Loudoun counties, Virginia. The Dulles Corridor is home to several of the Washington D.C. metropolitan region's most dynamic and rapidly growing activity centers, including Tysons Corner, the Reston-Herndon area, Dulles International Airport and the emerging activity centers in eastern Loudoun County. The purpose of Dulles Metrorail is to provide high-quality, high-capacity transit service in the Dulles Corridor. New Metrorail service in the corridor will result in travel time savings between the corridor and downtown D.C., expand the reach of the existing regional rail system, offer a viable alternative to automobile travel and support future development along the corridor.
