Reston Association president says rail must go all the way to Dulles International Airport and beyond.
Reston Association
president Kathleen Driscoll McKee said on Friday the organization
supports the completion of Metro's Silver Line to Dulles International
Airport and into Loudoun County.
The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors will vote April 10 whether to
support Phase 2, which will run from Reston Wiehle's Avenue (the end of
Phase 1) to Loudoun County.
The Wiehle Station is scheduled to open in
late 2013.
However, with several issues such as
cost control and a mandatory Project-Labor Agreement, support from
Loudoun County is uncertain. Loudoun County has until July to make a
decision.
Reston Association has advocated for the completion of Phase 2 over
the last two years. In separate letters to the Metropolitan Washington
Airports Authority (MWAA), the RA Board said that this most important
public works project would bring success to the entire region only if it
were completed all the way into Loudoun County. . . .
