City officials and community members held a groundbreaking ceremony on Thursday Dec 19th for the new construction of the Potomac Yard Metro. The new Potomac Yard Station will be located between Reagan National Airport and Braddock Road stations on the Blue and Yellow Lines with the George Washington Memorial Parkway to the east and northeast, the Potomac Greens to the south and the Potomac Yard Shopping Center to the west and northwest.
Chair of the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority Marty Nohe has stated that "the new Potomac Yard Station will provide an attractive transit option in the Route 1 corridor that will help reduce traffic congestion and provide access for the entire D.C. region to and from this growing activity hub in Northern Virginia". The construction of the station comes after the approval of the final permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Potomac Yard Station is expected to open in early 2022.
