Rail to Dulles and Loudoun County

From Potomac District Supervisor Andrea McGimsey, via her Potomac District newsletter, is news that Loudoun County staff presented an update to the Board of Supervisors regarding the county's participation in the Dulles Corridor Metrorail project.

According to McGimsey's June e-newsletter, the county will contribute 4.8% to the cost of the project, estimated to be $252 million. Metro expects to complete Phase 2, which will extend the line to Dulles International Airport and on to the Dulles Greenway/Ryan Road Station, in late 2016.

The estimated cost to the county will be updated once they complete the preliminary design for Phase 2, expected in February, 2011.
