Any talk of slug lines starting at Monroe Park and Ride? It seems a perfect easy on off spot for those on the toll road.

I am new to slugging (and commuting into DC) and Im planning on taking the bus from Monroe to the Metro, but a slug line would be great. Also, is there a bus that goes directly from Monroe into DC somewhere?

I have been commuting into DC from the Monroe Park and Ride for 4 1/2 years by bus to West Falls Church and then from West Falls Church to the Gallery Place/Chinatown stop by subway. One morning recently when the buses were not arriving for a long time, I became a slug for a driver
that actually worked in my building. Ever since, I have been dreaming to ride as a slug for a driver from the Monroe lot to the Gallery Place area. I know a new slug pickup area is now going to Rosslyn,VA from Monroe; but that won't help me enough. Anyone driving from Monroe Park and Ride area looking for slugs near Gallery Place subway stop?

Any details on the Monroe to Rosslyn slug? I go to Union Station, but the slug to Rosslyn would be much faster for me.

we commute / slug in from Herndon Monroe P&R around 8 a.m. into Rosslyn. There are quite a few drivers now pulling in at that time. Hope this helps.

Anyone else interested in extending the new Rosslyn slug line from Herndon-Monroe to go all the way into DC? I work near Farragut West and would love it if there was a slug line between that area and the park and ride.
