Prince William County Transportation Sign

 

Ease of commuting is one of the primary considerations for most people when buying a home.  Commuting options in Woodbridge and Dumfries are among the best in Northern Virginia.

EXPRESS BUS SERVICE to the PENTAGON, WASHINGTON, DC and the FRANCONIA-SPRINGFIELD METRORAIL is readily available at VDOT parking lots throughout eastern Prince William County.  Three subdivisions, Lake Ridge, Montclair and Dale City have commuter bus stops in the subdivision

CARPOOLS usually meet at the VDOT Commuter Lots - see OMNIMATCH for more specific details

SLUGGING (some erroneously call it hitching a ride which it is) is a result of the need to use HOV lanes on the I-95 as much as possible. Commuters form a line at a designated SLUG STOP  A driver will pull up who is headed for the Pentagon, but needs one more passenger to qualify for HOV-3. The first person in line going to the Pentagon will join the others in the car and away they go. It's free commuting for the slugger and gives the driver availability to HOV lanes on I-95 - win win!!

RAILROAD The Virginia Railway Express provides rail service to Springfield, Crystal City and Union Station in Washington,  There are three stations in eastern Prince William County QUANTICO, RIPPON and WOODBRIDGE.   At Springfield you can switch to METRORAIL that gives you access to the entire National Capital Area subway system.

LOCAL BUS SERVICE Local buses run regulary throughout eastern Prince William County and the rest of the county.  Routes and schedu;es can be viewed at OMNILINK
