    PRESS RELEASE Office of Public Affairs For Immediate Release Contact: Karen Finucan Clarkson 571-255-0931 (mobile) 703-838-5433 (office) [email protected] VRE Is Perfect Commuting Alternative During Metrorail Station Closures Commuter Rail Connects Franconia-Springfield and Alexandria with Stations in NOVA & DC Alexandria, Va. – When the six Metrorail stations south of National Airport shut down this summer, the Virginia Railway Express (VRE) will be a convenient alternative for many commuters. VRE offers service at two stations, Franconia-Springfield and Alexandria, that are a short walk from the soon-to-be closed Franconia-Springfield and King St-Old Town Metrorail stations. VRE trains run northbound in the morning and southbound in the evening with stops at Crystal City in Virginia, and L’Enfant and Union Station in Washington, D.C. “VRE makes commuting easy,” said Doug Allen, the railroad’s chief executive officer. “Our 32 daily trains provide nearly 20,000 passenger trips and connect to all six Metrorail lines. VRE is a great commuting alternative for many Metrorail riders affected by this summer’s station shutdown.” VRE trains arrive at Union Station each weekday between 6:24 and 9:17 a.m. and depart Union Station between 12:55 and 7:05 p.m. While all trains stop at the Alexandria station, only trains on the Fredericksburg line stop at Franconia-Springfield, where parking at the Metro garage will be free during the station closure. Passengers can see which trains have the most available seating by visiting VRE’s train utilization trends page at www.vre.org.

RIDE Magazine | August 2014 3 COMING IN 2017...NEW VRE STATION AT POTOMAC SHORES. FROM THE CEO DOUG ALLEN Chief Executive Officer am so pleased to announce some great news about two VRE projects that have been in the works for a long time. VRE’s original system plan has always included a train station at Potomac IShores (then called Cherry Hill). VRE has partnered with SunCal, the devel- oper of the Potomac Shores community, to build a new station at no cost to VRE. Potomac Shores station is planned to open for service in 2017 (see article on page 8 8), although the opening date is predicated on VRE making other improvements on the Fredericksburg Line. I am also happy to announce that Spotsylvania County has the property access it needs for VRE to start construction of the station and for the County to build a 1,500 space parking lot.

  • Appendix B.Doc
    B BACKGROUND MATERIAL SECTION 2 – PLAN ADMINISTRATION GUIDELINES 2.1 Governance It is assumed for the purposes of this System Plan that the ownership of commuter rail assets throughout the State of Minnesota would be in the public interest. In other words, the citizen taxpayers of the state would own the system – specifically those commuter rail assets that are separable from the freight rail facilities, systems, equipment and/or rights-of-way that are owned by the relevant freight railroads. There are several considerations that validate the assumption of public ownership: • The public sector is the logical administrator and overseer of public transportation services provided over rights-of-way owned and operated by multiple freight rail carriers. • Public policy dictates that commuter rail service be provided within the framework of a regional and potentially statewide, publicly funded multi- modal transportation system. • The public sector is the appropriate and responsible choice as manager of the expenditure of public funding required to plan, design, construct, operate and maintain such a system. • The provision of commuter rail service is not viable without substantial public sector financing, which would not likely be available under the auspices of private ownership. The commuter rail service sponsor is the public entity or combination of entities that serves as the public’s principal agent for or overseer of such service. As such, a sponsor serves at a minimum as the lead administrator or contracting entity for all services to be provided. All commuter rail services operated throughout the nation are owned by the public sector and sponsored by one or more public agencies through a variety of intergovernmental agreements.
