The Dulles Metrorail and Interstate 495 HOT Lanes projects are moving full steam ahead, and the traveling public in Virginia will reap the rewards of these significant transportation additions by 2013.
Hot Lanes are a system that will provide new travel choices for a faster and more reliable trip.
Work on five new Metrorail stations is underway, with four in Tysons Corner and one in Reston. Trains are expected to begin servicing these stations in late 2013.
Both of these projects will increase transportation options in Northern Virginia. In the mean time, there are numerous delays. To ease these impacts, Virginia Megaprojects created a traffic management plan (TMP) to offer alternatives to lane closures and detours.
This plan includes three new bus services: Tysons Connector,
a free shuttle serving Tysons Corner at lunchtime during the week; Tysons Express, a Woodbridge to Tysons Corner commuter bus with free Wi-Fi; and a Loudoun County express bus to Tysons Corner to launch in fall 2010.
