Cherry Hill Third Track

Scope: To complete an Environmental Assessment and Preliminary (30%) Design for the addition of approximately 11.4 miles of mainline third track within the CSX line between Aquia Creek and Powell's Creek, making full use of the newly constructed Quantico Creek Bridge. The work is being completed in coordination with the Harbor Station Development project, which will construct a double platform commuter rail station with overhead pedestrian bridge, a parking garage and a grade separation roadway bridge over the railroad tracks. The new track will include switch and infrastructure improvements that will greatly improve rail capacity. As this phase of the project is being performed, VRE is pursuing additional funding that will advance the project through final design and eventually construction.

Project Budget: $2.5 Million

Current Status: Preliminary Design
