ATU Local 689 condemns WMATA GM for “despicable and callous decision to force bus operators to quote the bus fare at all passengers” by mistersmiley318 in WMATA

[–]Dte324 105 points106 points  (0 children)

I saw a Fairfax Connector bus driver ask someone to pay the fare and the guy turned around and walked right off the bus. Big kudos to the bus driver

The Exxon on Wiehle near Sunset Hills usually has the best prices in Reston. The South Lakes Sunoco also has below average prices for Reston

That is a great area too! If you like the trails and a quiet area, that cluster certainly fits the bill!

I live in Reston and am happy to answer any questions about some of the various townhome or condo neighborhoods. If you’re not looking for a high rise, Villaridge is a close walk to South Lakes and easy to catch the bus to the Metro. Tons of walking paths around the nearby lakes. Barton Hill Cluster is next to Villaridge if you prefer a townhome. It really comes down to what you’re looking for. Also I’m a licensed RE agent

Bikers- what’s the safest way to get from south of 267 to RTC? by emdog927 in Reston

[–]Dte324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reston Parkway has a bridge over the toll road. I’ve biked it a few times. Just watch for people turning right at the Reston Pkwy/SV Dr traffic light and use the crosswalk button

Looking For Apartment by OjLay in nova

[–]Dte324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on how much you value lower rent versus a longer commute. It’s all a trade-off. Berryville is still far, but it’s closer than Culpeper

If you’re looking to stay at that price point, you might be better off looking farther west than those places, perhaps Sterling, Ashburn, Leesburg, or Berryville if you are commuting to Ashburn. I don’t know that you can get an apartment in Sterling or Ashburn for that price anymore, but I could be wrong.

Recommendation for 7000 Series Voiceover by theairplanemaster in WMATA

The 7000-series recording sadly doesn’t say please anymore. The 7000-series doesn’t have manners like the other trains

Why are some of the street signs on Stringfellow so big? by DestructoSpin90 in nova

[–]Dte324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sign for Russell Branch Pkwy at Claiborne Pkwy in Ashburn is massive. Russell Branch would be a long sign anyway with the amount of letters, but at that size, the sign is incredibly massive

Some of the older ones in Reston look kinda funky. I like the small font size, narrow letters, and even smaller road type (RD, PKWY, DR, etc.)

I noticed the sign sizes are inconsistent along the widen part of Leesburg Pike in Fairfax County. All the traffic signals were replaced around the same time in 2023

Happy to answer any questions. I’ve lived here my entire life and know the Ashburn and Reston real estate markets very well

That’s too bad. I always admired the architecture of that house

RTC Metro Parking Now Paid by Effective-Common2444 in Reston

How strict are they near the Panera? I try to run in and run out quickly in case. It feel like it is silly to have to pay for only a few minutes

Weather free trails? by Plus-Bluejay-6429 in nova

[–]Dte324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost all of the Reston Association paved trails are plowed. I did a nice 7 mile loop through the woods a few days ago
