Fairfax Countywide Transit Network Study

The Countywide Transit Network Study is a report being developed by the Fairfax County Department of Transportation. The study will recommend "the type of transit systems needed to accommodate desired economic growth throughout the county over the next several decades." Research and analysis for the study is being coordinated with nearby jurisdictions and will take into account current planning efforts for regional transit.

Objectives
The study has three primary objectives:


 * 1. Determine future countywide transit needs:
 * Which highway corridors show a very high level of congestion in future?
 * What quality of transit service do we need?
 * Where do we need exclusive right-of-way?
 * 2. Determine travel markets:
 * Which of the county’s activity centers have the highest level of travel demand to, from, within, or between them?
 * 3. Determine countywide connected transit network:
 * Where are there gaps in the network?
 * Where should connections occur?
 * How well are the needs to move people and goods and to support economic growth being served?
