Cong. Frank Wolf Weighs In on Tysons' Silver Line Expansion

Congressman Frank Wolf (R-VA), a senior congressional leader and poweful advocate for transportation issues in Northern Virginia, said that all systems are go for the Silver Line Metro extension through Tysons Corner. Appearing on WTOP radio, Wolf noted that the project is "now moving ahead at a good pace now" and is set for a 2013 completion.

Wolf also added that he doesn't like the potential high tolls for the High Occupancy Toll lanes. "I've never been a supporter of the HOT lanes...They're actually talking about people spending $20 to use them."

Wolf's district covers a large Northern Virginia area extending from McLean in the east, Winchester in the west, and Manassas in the south.
