Below is a statement from the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority regarding the status of construction on Phase 1 of the Dulles Corridor Metrorail Project.
"The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority and the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority have concluded a review of the Silver Line Phase 1 Substantial Completion Submission from Dulles Transit Partners, and determined the contractor has not yet met the contract requirements for substantial completion.
After an extensive public search, the board of directors of the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, on Feb. 19, confirmed Ginger Evans as the new vice president for engineering.
Happy New Year! Thank you for inviting me to speak to such a distinguished aviation audience. I’ve been at the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority for about 2 ½ years. Coming into this job, I had a degree of comfort because during my years at the Postal Service, I thought I had acquired a good understanding of aviation.
After all, the modern aviation industry was jump-started by the Post Office Department and the need for speedy movement of mail and packages by air. The revenue from mail funded the establishment of air service across the country.
