We want to hear from you! Fairfax County Department of Transportation (FCDOT) wants to know how to improve the local bus service provided by Fairfax Connector in the Herndon-Reston area. FCDOT is looking for public input as part of a process to generate service improvement recommendations and an implementation plan for service changes, including connections to the future Metrorail Silver Line Phase 2 stations in Herndon and Reston. FCDOT's goals for this process include increased mobility, better access to destinations, improved travel times, increased schedule reliability, more effective transit operations and increased ridership.

This is the first of two interactive community meetings to gather input and answer questions regarding local bus service in the Herndon-Reston Area. The meetings will include interactive exercises to explore individual travel needs, issues and ideas, and will provide attendees an opportunity to give specific feedback on future Fairfax Connector service in the area. The snow date for these meetings is Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2019, 6-8 p.m. at Hughes Middle School, 11401 Ridge Heights Rd in Reston. Can't attend the meetings? Submit feedback by taking a short, five minute survey below.
