The West End Transitway is a proposed 5.3 miles (8.5 km) Bus Rapid Transit line between Van Dorn and Pentagon Washington Metro stations. It would serve the City of Alexandria, Virginia, as well as Arlington County, Virginia.
Route
The bus line would primarily run through the West End neighborhood of Alexandria, before making connections both in the urban village of Shirlington, as well as at the Pentagon. The preferred alignment would also connect to Northern Virginia Community College.
The proposed bus line would have both mixed use and dedicated lanes. It would have high-quality bus stations with rider amenities.
Currently, Alternatives Analysis is being done and Environmental Documentation is being generated for the project.
