Alexandria King Street Tunnel

Scope: To construct a pedestrian tunnel that connects the mezzanine of the King Street Metro Station to the VRE Alexandria Station. This tunnel will improve pedestrian access, ADA access, eliminate the use of the at-grade track crossing and upgrade the eastern VRE Amtrak platform. Railroad capacity and operational flexibility would also improve by allowing passenger trains to use the eastern track.

Scheduled Completion: Begin Design 2013; Complete Design 2014; Complete Construction 2015

Project Budget: $7.4 Million

Current Status: Feasibility Study
