Metro Launches Silver Line Extension in Northern Virginia
Metro riders in Northern Virginia can add six new rail connections to their commutes—including Washington Dulles International Airport, Reston, Herndon and Eastern Loudoun County—with the opening of the Silver Line extension, adding 11.4 miles of track to the Metrorail system and beginning operations at a modern rail maintenance facility. The Silver Line extension’s grand opening marked the completion of the Silver Line project, a generational infrastructure investment in Northern Virginia.
