Why should multimodal accessibility to VRE stations be improved? b. What are the benefits of multimodal accessibility? c. How can we encourage multimodal accessibility? 2. CASE STUDY a. How and from where users access VRE? b. How different stations compare? c. How to boost active and public transportation as a way to access VRE stations? 3. FUTURE STUDIES AND LESSONS LEARNED VIRGINIA RAILWAY EXPRESS 2 THE EASIER IT IS TO ACCESS THE SYSTEM, THE MORE LIKELY PEOPLE ARE TO USE IT TRIP FIRST MILE VRE LAST MILE 4% 4% 7% 5% 4% 6% 20% 62% 87% VIRGINIA RAILWAY EXPRESS 2017 VRE Master Agreement Survey 3 WHY SHOULD MULTIMODAL ACCESSIBILITY TO VRE STATIONS BE IMPROVED? • Although the streets and infrastructure that comprise the first and last mile fall outside the boundaries of VRE jurisdiction and control, they remain critical components of an effective service. • It is possible to increase ridership without increasing the need to provide more parking if fewer people drive alone to stations and more people carpool, take the bus, bike, or walk to stations. • Federal, state, regional, and local policies support increased use of public transportation as a means to ease roadway congestion, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and support economic and physical health in communities.

  • Rappahannock Regional Jail 34
    Part I: Setting the Stage Setting the Stage In 2007, the City Council adopted a Vision Statement to guide Fredericksburg toward its 300th anniversary in 2028. This Comprehensive Plan provides the framework for the community to attain that vision – addressing current conditions, defining goals for the future, and providing strategies that reconcile the existing conditions and the City’s desired outcomes. This Part I of the Comprehensive Plan sets the stage with a clear statement of vision, a brief overview of what a comprehensive is supposed to be, and a presentation of facts that provide a community profile. Preface Chapter 1: Vision and Comprehensive Plan Overview Chapter 2: Fredericksburg: A Community Profile 1 Preface Fredericksburg, Virginia, December 2014 This Comprehensive Plan has been prepared to guide decision making. It is to be used to help the City of Fredericksburg move forward in a manner that embraces local values and achieves the City’s vision for itself. The Fredericksburg City Council adopted its last comprehensive plan in 2007. A year later, the nation experienced a severe economic downturn that had a tremendous impact on the available revenues that are used to cover local government costs. The local real estate market dropped, although not as significantly as it did in some parts of the country, due to the City’s favorable location as a part of the Northern Virginia/Washington D.C. metropolitan area. Still, some area housing lost value and many local businesses are still trying to recover. At this time, the City is beginning to see renewed investment in the community and this revised Plan renews the City’s policies to guide the anticipated growth.

    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.
