Virginia officials have agreed to commit an additional $150 million to the Dulles Rail project, according to Loudoun County Chairman Scott York (I-At Large).
York’s announcement came July 6 as supervisors discussed whether or not to accept a recent mediated proposal by U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood that would drive down overall costs of the Metrorail extension by more than $1 billion, but would add $135 million to the total Loudoun must pay toward the project for construction of three parking garages.
Loudoun supervisors made no decisions on the transportation secretary’s proposal, instead opting to return July 19 for a final vote. . . .
