Rosslyn - Herndon Monroe Park and Ride

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Just wondering if this line is truly being used. I'm a sporadic driver from Sterling, driving in to DC too early (0545-0600) to pick anyone up, but I periodically drive home during the peak period. I've swung by the pickup zone several times only to find nobody there for Herndon/Monroe. I normally come through the service road in Rosslyn between 4:45 and 5:15. Am I wasting time, or should I continue to take my chances?

	I'd like to gauge the interest level for the slug line from Herndon/Monroe Park and Ride lot to Rosslyn and vis versa. Note that the Rosslyn pickup spot moved next to the Horner Road pickup spot. As for morning drivers, I suspect if you print one of the slug signs for Rosslyn and show it to the long lines of folks waiting for the bus, you should get some takers. If there is enough participation, those slugs will be more likely to try to catch a ride home! I've been successful slugging twice, but no rides in three other attempts in October.
