MANASSAS — Virginia Railway Express officials recommend expanding the Broad Run station from its current footprint northward across the tracks.
The commuter railroad recommends building the “north/south option” that would mean adding a new parking lot for riders across the tracks on the north side of the station. It would also mean adding a new station entrance on Residency Road, to provide more station access from Route 28.
The Woodbridge/Lake Ridge OmniLink buses will no longer serve some stops and will stop traveling through Tacketts Mill shopping center.
