Tyson’s Metrorail (Washington Metro)
Going by another name as the Silver Line, it derives its name from the meticulous of its planning on the maps. It’s an expansion of the Washington Metro rapid transit system connecting Dulles International Airport and Tyson’s Corner. It will be made up of twenty-nine stations that will extend from Loudon County, Virginia to Stadium-Armory which is in Washington D.C, in the U.S.The extension of the line will be 37 kilometers and it will cost the taxpayers a whooping $6.8 billion. (Joachim Schneider 2003)
The Tyson’s Metrorail will lead to increased congestion on the road because a large number of people won’t walk. The reason behind is that even if the new system is completed people will not opt to walk to work because of a lack of clean environment. There is an apparent building of the many buildings in the Broadlands which are single-family homes. Still there are no trade and service alternatives that many people require which means that people will have to use their cars to get at any place.
The property tax revenue will be increased if at all the project is to succeed.
The project, once completed, will be an advantage for travelers with luggage as it will save them the 1,150 feet that they would trek so as to access the aboveground station and who wait in steamy Washington summers or icy winter winds after enduring long overseas flights.
The new Tyson’s Express Bus Service that will be the route from Loudoun to Tyson’s Corner will be a very great advantage to the commuters as they will avoid the traffic snarl-up as the construction of the Metrorail goes on.(Joachim Schneider,2003)
The cost of construction is very big
The cost of flooding and the income underperformance.
In such public dominated spaces such as it will be after the completion if the Tyson’s Corridor,it will boost the rise of security concerns.There will be crimes among them luggage stealing and even pick pocketing .There may some serious crimes that may even attribute use of violence.To boost the security, there will be job opportunities such as for security guards.
On the other side, the Tyson’s Metrorail system will allow a huge number of passengers and it will minimize the land that is used by the motorway. There will be minimum environmental impact on the system. If there is underground ways, people tend to go on with their daily basis and the land on which they would be occupying that is very expensive is put into proper use. The city is left with enough space to expand with no physical hindrances. Motor systems tend to lessen the value of the near residential land cost and if a quick and reliable commuting station will enhance business and housing development since there will be many constructions that will be in the long run be used as places of work and residential blocks.
To avoid those people that like freebies, mostly of whom like travelling without paying, there will be job opportunities for people who will be conductors.
During terrorist attacks, many people are known to have their lives cut short at such much crowded places.
Underground systems are important in such that they empty the traffic snarl-ups from the central business district paving valuable land that could be used to build constructions or put into much important uses.
The companies may realize quick profits as they attach passengers by utilizing a low amount of money of hygiene, admissibility, gloss architecture and the level of security.
The motor systems are owned by the public and are powered by taxation and not by the money paid by the passengers.
Some big towns such as that in Hong Kong are powered by the retailing of land whose the market cost has been pushed a notch higher by the building of such systems.
