CAG, BID Urge Metro to Build Georgetown Station

Will Metrorail come to Georgetown in your
lifetime?
The Citizens Association of Georgetown
and the Georgetown Business Improvement
District wrote a joint letter to the Washington
Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Nov. 6 to
voice their support of a Georgetown Metrorail
stop. Mentioning Georgetown as a major retail
center in D.C. without a Metro station and BID’s
effort, known as Georgetown 2028, that shows a
subway stop as a top transportation priority,
CAG and BID wrote that they “endorse
the Momentum Plan proposal to create a
separate Blue Line station in Rosslyn during
the 2013-15 strategic plan period. We
strongly encourage immediate planning
for the extension of this separated Blue
Line to downtown D.C. via Georgetown
so that cross-Potomac tunnel construction
can proceed immediately from the separate
Rosslyn tunnel boring.”
