Metro to host public hearing on proposed Potomac Yard Metrorail station

Metro will host a public hearing on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement and plans for the proposed Potomac Yard Metrorail Station on Thursday, April 30, 2015 at Cora Kelly Recreation Center. The public hearing will be preceded by an Open House period that will begin at 6:30 p.m., and the formal Public Hearing will begin at 7:00 p.m. 

The milestone represents another positive step toward providing transportation infrastructure investment within Potomac Yard. “This is a significant point in a critical project and will help City Council make the best decision regarding a new station and location,” said Mayor William D. Euille.

Shuttle buses to the Cora Kelly Recreation Center will depart every 30 minutes from the King Street Metrorail Station starting at 4:45 p.m. and the Braddock Road Metrorail Station starting at 5:00 p.m. The return shuttle bus will depart the recreation center at the conclusion of the hearing.
