Transit System Planning

Professional transit system planning

Public transportation reduces the number of trips made in private vehicles, vehicle miles of travel (VMT), and greenhouse gas emissions; facilitates compact, mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development; saves energy; and improves air quality,

We have conducted:

• 185 studies in 60 of the 86 existing Metro station areas in metropolitan Washington
• 10 studies at all four planned stations along the Silver line extension through Tysons Corner
• 11 studies at three of the eight planned stations along the Silver line extension from Tysons Corner to Dulles Airport and beyond.

Metro stations were the focal point of these studies.

We also have recommended shuttle bus connections to Metro stations that are beyond convenient walking distance (generally considered to be ¼ to ½ mile of the station).
