Vienna, VA

Steve: Freda, probably the most popular place for REALLY LONG ADVENTURES is the Washington and Old DominionRailroad trail. It is around 40 some miles long and even has parts where you can ride horses safely.

You can check it out at:Old Dominion Park as well as Trail link (you can find other local places for adventure on this site)

Friends of ours will routinely ride from Reston into Vienna, with ones in really good condition riding all the way in to the Potomac River across from DC.

Transportation is a big issue in every area, but especially here in the DC area. Maryland, DC + northern Virginia are all so intertwined in business and more that we need to make sure it's easy to get place to place. Unfortunately easy isn't usually a word associated with our regions transportation.

There are some things being done to address area transportation =

Maryland

- Montgomery county council recently passed a vote to promote denser development in already urban areas, with requirements that there be green and transportation friendly amenities (paths, bike trails, etc.)

- ICC = Inter County Connector is being built

- PG county is working on development of New Carrolton area

Virginia

- All along the beltway the HOT lanes program is adding 2 extra lanes on each side of the beltway (inner loop and outer loop) - from Alexandria through Tysons Corner

- Metro is being built through Tysons Corner to Reston, and eventually out to the Dulles Airport; this will be known as the Silver line

- free bus service mid-day in Tysons corner

DC

- promoting green practicies

- greener buses

Is this enough. Well no, it's never enough, but it's something. Let's keep working towards solutions to better communities. Transportation is a key issue in getting to our real estate, be it commercial or residential.
