DRPT conducted a feasibility study of enhanced public transportation services between the Franconia-Springfield Metro station in Fairfax County and the Quantico Marine Base in Prince William County. Enhanced transit could include options such as additional express bus services, increased VRE commuter rail expansion, bus rapid transit, or an extension of Metrorail. The corridor between the Franconia-Springfield Metro Station and the Quantico Marine Base is critical to Northern Virginia. Besides the Blue Line, it is served by a range of transit services including VRE commuter rail service, express bus, and local bus, as well as vanpool and carpool options that take advantage of the Interstate 95/Interstate 395 Express Lanes and high-occupancy toll lanes and a network of park-and-ride lots throughout the corridor.
