OmniRide will provide regularly-scheduled Saturday bus service between Woodbridge and the Franconia-Springfield Metro station via it’s Metro Express service.

  • Three-morning trips — 7:30, 9, and 10:30 a.m. — leave the OmniRide Transit Center in Woodbridge.
  • The first post-parade Evening return trips from the Springfield Metro back to OmniRide start at 3:30 p.m.

Amtrak offers Saturday service on its Northeast Regional train 194, with stops in Fredericksburg and Quantico at 11:17 and 11:37 a.m., respectively.

Virginia Railway Express does not offer service on weekends and doesn’t plan to make an exception despite the World Series win, spokeswoman Karen Clark Duncan told me.

Expect a crush of people using Metro to get to the parade.

  • Washington, D.C. officials urge everyone head to the festivities to leave their car at home.
