Va. explores Metro to Woodbridge on heels of billions invested into VRE, HOT lanes expansions

New survey findings show that the majority of respondents, at least 31%, favored extending Metro south of Springfield.

One of the options being discussed in the feasibility study is the possibility of extending the Metro's Yellow Line from Huntington station Alexandria south along Route 1 to Woodbridge, Potomac Mills, and Quantico.

  • The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation has revealed the findings of a survey conducted to find ways to improve transportation in our region.
  • The survey was conducted between April 19 to May 18 and asked 1,352 residents from Prince William and the southern portion of Fairfax counties what methods would improve transit.

DRPT sought to understand local and regional use of public transit in both the pre-and and post-pandemic eras. Public transportation serving Prince William County saw very low ridership due to pandemic restrictions, which had a detrimental effect on the revenue streams of public transit organizations such as Omniride and the Virginia Railway Express.
