“Overall, VRE’s plan will accommodate commuters, but also families and travelers who want to tour Washington D.C., and historic areas and battlefields in #Virginia through expanded Saturday services, and potentially more daily weekday trips and an express service.” @VaRailExpress

The amendment puts an undue burden on localities required to support Metro, including Loudoun. It also demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of Metro operations. We urge the Governor to approve the Metro funding as negotiated in the budget by both houses of the GA.
Speaking of which, the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission has sent a letter expressing those concerns about funding to the General Assembly. Here's the full letter:
Appreciate your article in @voxdotcom covering @wmata post pandemic recovery. Proud of the #wmata team who have been working very hard to deliver frequent safe & reliable service and it is paying off with growing ridership & record customer satisfaction.
Wrote about D.C.’s remarkable post-Covid transit recovery, and what other cities can learn from its experiment. (The short version is: Don’t fear deficits! Transit is a public service, and the better it is, the more people will use it.) vox.com/cities-and-urb…
A new report from the @NoVaTransit finds the use of public transit in northern Virginia reduces up to 160,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions each year and that diesel-fueled buses provide greater benefits to the environment. #ZeroEmissions masstransitmag.com/bus/vehicles/h…
This is a good idea that would improve access to jobs in National Landing for MD residents. VRE's new Crystal City Station will have the capacity accommodate MARC trains post-Long Bridge.
Opinion: MARC could do so much more, by connecting Maryland and Virginia directly for the benefit of commuters: ggwash.org/view/93234/run…

Informative report from our colleagues on the environmental benefit of public transit. Transportation is the largest source of #greenhousegas emissions in the region. Great to put a spotlight on the benefits of and need for investment in the public transit system.
