DRPT to Host I-66 Transit/Transportation Demand Management Study Public Information Meetings

The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) will host three public information meetings to inform and create dialogue with the public on the I-66 Transit/Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Study. The study is evaluating potential short-and medium term transit and TDM enhancements to increase mobility in the I-66 corridor from the District of Columbia to Haymarket, Va.

The public information meetings will include a continuous open house with representatives available to provide information on the study and transit/TDM alternatives under consideration. In addition, a presentation will be given twice (at 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.) with an opportunity for questions and answers. Each public information meeting will follow the same schedule: 6:30 p.m.-9:00 p.m.

The most local meeting will be held in Haymarket on Wednesday, May 13, at Battlefield High School Auditorium,15000 Graduation Drive. Other area meetings will be held in Arlington on May 12 and Oakton on May 14.

During the public meetings, individuals will have the opportunity to comment verbally or in writing. Those who cannot attend may send comments or questions on the I-66 Transit/TDM Study to DRPTPR@DRPT.Virginia.gov. Comments will be accepted until May 29, 2009.
