The Metropolitan
Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) in cooperation with the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT), Washington Metropolitan
Area Transit Authority (WMATA), Fairfax County, and Loudoun County is working to construct a 23.1-mile extension of Metrorail in the rapidly growing Dulles Corridor in Fairfax and
Loudoun counties, Virginia.
The Dulles Corridor is home to several of the Washington D.C. metropolitan region’s most dynamic and
rapidly growing activity centers, including Tysons Corner, Dulles International Airport, and
the emerging activity centers in Reston, Herndon, and eastern Loudoun County. The purpose of the Dulles Corridor Metrorail Project is to
provide high-quality, high-capacity transit service in the Dulles Corridor. New Metrorail service will result in
travel time savings, expand the reach of the existing regional Metrorail system,
offer a viable alternative to automobile travel, and support future development along the corridor.
