Meeting Scheduled On Vienna Metro Capacity Study

From the Office of Supervisor Linda Q. Smyth (D-Providence):

Vienna Metro Transit Station Capacity Study

Community Outreach Meeting

Jan. 31 at 7:30 p.m.

Oakton High School Cafeteria

2900 Sutton Road, Vienna

The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, Fairfax County Department of Transportation and Providence District Supervisor Linda Smyth are sponsoring a follow-up public information session for users of the Vienna/Fairfax-GMU Metrorail station and residents adjacent to the station to discuss the existing and future capacity needs of the station.

The community outreach meeting scheduled for Jan. 31, 2006, at 7:30 p.m. is a follow-up meeting to the initial public outreach meeting held on July 12, 2005, at Oakton High School. This upcoming community outreach meeting is intended to serve as an opportunity to both solicit additional community input and to share interim results of the initial outreach and analysis of the station's capacity needs. Since users and residents adjacent to the station live with the station on a daily basis, their participation is strongly encouraged.

In 2005, Supervisors Smyth and Dana Kauffman and the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors initiated the planning and funding of a capacity study of the Vienna Metro transit station. The capacity study will be a key to facilitating timely public improvements to the station to meet current and future needs at the Vienna Metro Station
