Reston Town Center station (preliminary name Reston Parkway )[3] rapid transit station on the Silver Line of the Washington Metro in Reston , an unincorporated area in Northern Virginia . It opened on November 15, 2022.
The station is located in the central section of Reston, within the median of SR 267 (Dulles Toll Road) west of its interchange with SR 602 (Reston Parkway). Reston Town Center is approximately 2,000 ft (610 m ) to the north of the station. The station has a single island platform with two tracks. Two pedestrian bridges cross the highway, linking the station to bus bays and kiss and ride lots on either side.[4]
History [ edit ]
The Silver Line was developed in the 21st century to link Washington, D.C. , by rail to Washington Dulles International Airport and the edge cities of Tysons , Reston , Herndon , and Ashburn .[5] Wiehle–Reston East , opened in 2014.[6] Loudoun County Board of Supervisors voted 5 to 4 to extend the line to Dulles Airport and into the county.[7] [8]
The station under construction in 2018.
In April 2015, project officials pushed back the opening date for the station to late 2019, stating that stricter requirements for stormwater management caused much of the delay. Per officials, the line also had to incorporate improvements to the system's automated train controls that were a late addition to the project's first phase.[9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) then announced that the Phase 2 extension should be substantially complete by Labor Day 2021,[15] [16]
MWAA declared the work on the rail line to be "substantially complete" in November 2021. However, WMATA estimated that it could take five months of testing and other preparations before passenger service could begin.[17] [18] [19] [20] [21]
Transit-oriented development [ edit ]
As with all stations on the Silver Line within Fairfax County, the Fairfax County Planning Commission aims to transform the surrounding area into a mixed-use, dense, and walkable neighborhood connected to Reston Town Center. The Planning Commission has delineated an area bounded by New Dominion Parkway, Reston Parkway, Sunset Hills Road, Sunrise Valley Drive, and Fairfax County Parkway for transit-oriented development .[22] [22]
