  • Ceo Report March 2016 Our Mission
    CEO REPORT MARCH 2016 OUR MISSION The Virginia Railway Express, a joint project of the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission and the Potomac Rappahannock Transportation Commission, will provide safe, cost-effective, accessible, reliable, convenient, and customer responsive commuter-oriented rail passenger service. VRE contributes to the economic vitality of its member jurisdictions as an integral part of a balanced, intermodal regional transportation system. MESSAGE FROM THE CEO – DOUG ALLEN February is a month we often experience winter weather that can affect our operations. Fortunately, last month we operated without any “S” schedules or cancellation of service due to weather. While a winter storm did hit our region on Monday, Feb. 15, VRE was not operating service that day in observance of Presidents’ Day. Following the storm, our crews were out treating platforms and stations to get us prepared for service the next day. On Tuesday, Feb. 16, there was a three-hour delay for federal employees, so VRE operated regular service, but placed the longest consists on the later trains. February was not without its challenges, however. On the morning of Wednesday, Feb. 24, there was an electrical fire caused by a malfunctioning transformer on track owned by Amtrak along New York Avenue near Union Station. Train traffic in and out of Union Station was held and the fire was quickly contained. During this time when our trains were unable to arrive at Union Station, we decided to open the “Metro Option” allowing our riders en route to detrain at Alexandria, Crystal City or L’Enfant stations and OUR use Metrorail with a valid VRE ticket.

The work was carried out in July and October of 2007 by Thunderbird Archeology, a division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc., of Gainesville, Virginia, for Potomac Yard Development of Alexandria, Virginia. Initial test boring, along a +2300 foot section of the proposed path of Potomac Avenue, resulted in the discovery of a buried ground surface along the southernmost section of the study area. Subsequent Phase I investigations of the buried ground surface in a 500 foot section of this road, resulted in the identification of one new multi- component archeological site, 44AX0204. The prehistoric component of the site likely represents temporary use of the terraces and upland settings above a small stream that eventually emptied into the Potomac River. The historic component dates to the 19th century and is suggestive of a nearby structure. Additional archeological work was necessitated in April of 2009 by the construction of a sanitary sewer through site 44AX0204.
