How long until I can take the Silver Line to Dulles?
WASHINGTON — Two Thanksgivings from now, people flying in and out of Dulles International Airport could be taking the train there and back.
Construction on the Silver Line extension could wrap up as soon as fall 2019 or winter 2020, which would allow for Metro testing, commissioning and training before it takes ownership of the tracks from the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority and opens the extension for service.
Right now, Metro projects that opening is unlikely to happen before the summer of 2020.
