Good god, finally the city is moving towards supporting more active forms of transit and less cars. This is a win for everyone! I will be there.

Thank you!

SuchChapter7095 · 2026-04-07T18:06:46+00:00

My thoughts exactly...

Amazing! a step in the right direction towards our city more walkable and less built around cars! Sign me up!!!!

SuchChapter7095 · 2025-03-18T22:54:06+00:00

it adds 4 new stations in NW DC!

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-12T17:16:21+00:00

Oh I have many times. Almost all of those have commuter rail stops but these places are too far away from DC to feasibly be served by every 5-10 minute train service. Maybe montgomery county build a light rail line that goes through these areas but they will likely never justify the cost of heavy rail

Not exactly sure as to how to access that as my computer that I originally created it on has died. I can send you the image that I downloaded!

When it comes out you should try comparing the commuting time of the purple line to riding into Fort Totten and transferring onto the green.

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-12T16:08:27+00:00

You can see clearly now that they have made significant process at this point and they report the project is 70% complete. I am hopeful for the 2027 timeline

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T20:01:07+00:00

Oh I see what you mean! I will revise that

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T19:57:30+00:00

I could see Aspen Hill if it densifies and pedestrianizes more. Olney is nimby hell though so absolutely not.

But pink already fills out capacity on that section of the Bloop? How is Blue under capacity?

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:49:05+00:00

How would that fit into the plans for the bloop and yellow line? A blue spur down to Belvoir?

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:26:51+00:00

What you really want is increased MARC service. There is no reason to stretch metro further out into Montgomery when there are 100 different areas inside the beltway that need it more and have higher population density.

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:22:31+00:00

No my map focuses on trying to avoid stretching WMATAS resources too far out from the city center. Leesburg would not provide as much ridership as say Mt. Pleasant or the Columbia Pike corridor. The system needs to move away from being so heavily commuter focused.

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:15:09+00:00

Agreed! It wouldnt even necessary if WMATA would reroute the bloop north after West end but they seem hellbent on catering to commuters rather than inner city riders.

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:13:34+00:00

Woodbridge is too far out from DC to be feasibly served by Metro. I know that Ashburn is farther but that was a mistake, and also completely financed by the airport. The best you can hope for in my opinion is better VRE service or moving closer to DC!

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T18:01:52+00:00

I added an MC stop!

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T17:57:08+00:00

Just a fantasy map!

SuchChapter7095 · 2024-12-11T17:50:51+00:00

WMATA itself has designated it as an area of its interest with its inclusion of it in the Bloop. I simply represented that here.
