The theme of this week’s stories has been transit.
Lots of transit news around Alexandria this week, from Potomac Yard getting a new opening date to a new dashboard that allows for an easy tracking of Alexandria’s transportation statistics.
A report also showed that DASH is going strong with a new route overhaul and a fare-free program.
It was a (mostly) a positive week for transportation news.
