Construction Impacts from Potomac Yard Metro on Tap for Wednesday Meeting

ALEXANDRIA, VA -- The next community meeting to discuss potential impacts from construction of the planned Potomac Yard Metrorail Station will be held Wednesday, May 11 at the Durant Center, 1605 Cameron St., according to the City of Alexandria.
The meeting, a follow-up to the April 18 community meeting, is scheduled Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. (See the PowerPoint here and hear audio from the meeting here from the April 18 meeting. Search "audio.")
The Potomac Yard Metrorail Station is a planned infill station on the Metrorail Blue and Yellow lines between the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Braddock Road stations. The purpose of the project is to improve accessibility of the Potomac Yard area and provide more transportation choices for current and future residents, employees, and businesses by establishing a new access point to the regional Metrorail system, the City points out.
