The Maryland Department of Transportation said it has reached an agreement with Virginia for the potential future expansion of MARC to Alexandria.
Maryland is advancing negotiations to extend MARC commuter trains past Union Station in the District and into Virginia, with the goal of having the service operating across the Potomac River within a few years.The Maryland Department of Transportation on Thursday said it has reached an agreement with the Virginia Passenger Rail Authority for the potential future expansion of MARC to Alexandria. The agreement outlines the next steps needed to launch service.
“Maryland is committed to working with our neighbors to increase convenient and accessible transit across the entire region because we know an expanded transit network leads to expanded opportunities for everyone,” he said in a statement. Virginia Passenger Rail Authority executive director DJ Stadtler said he welcomed the partnership, calling it “an important first step” for advancing the state’s goals of reducing congestion and expanding passenger train operations. A key factor in facilitating MARC service into Virginia is the expansion of Long Bridge, a 117-year-old, double-track span that connects the District and Arlington.
