Dulles Metrorail - TimelineDulles Metrorail TimelineBecause of federal funding limitations and the timing of local funding availability, DRPT intends to construct the project in two major construction phases. Phase 1 of the Project, officially known as the Dulles Corridor Metrorail Project - Extension to Wiehle Avenue, will complete the first 11.6 miles of the planned extension from the Metrorail Orange Line to Wiehle Avenue in Reston. It will include five new stations (Tysons East, Tysons Central 123, Tysons Central 7, Tysons West and Wiehle Avenue), improvements to the existing rail yard at the West Falls Church Station. Metrorail service to Wiehle Avenue is scheduled to begin in 2011. Phase 2 of the Project, from Wiehle Avenue to Route 772/Ryan Road in Loudoun County, will include six additional stations (Reston Parkway, Herndon-Monroe, Route 28, Dulles Airport, Route 606 and Route 772) and a new rail yard on Dulles Airport property. This phase is currently scheduled for completion in 2015. Find Out More
