The cost is $7 each way. Drop off in front. However plan ahead like for any trip, get here at least 2 hours early in case of traffic. And don't be a seat hog. Put your luggage in the luggage compartments. Your luggage shouldn't be rolling down the aisles, hitting my feet.

Quick and convenient sums it up most of the time. This is an express bus with 4 total stops: Dulles…read moreAirport, Herndon-Monroe Park and Ride, Rosslyn Metro Station, and L'Enfant Plaza Station. The two metro stops are transfer points to other lines. Note that the pick up and drop off locations at L'Enfant are different. Depending on traffic, the trip can be from 30-60 minutes. Other than not having many stops, this bus is able to take Dulles Toll Road in the express lane. While this is an express bus to Dulles, it is essentially a commuter bus. This, there really isn't a place to put your luggage like the airport buses. If you intend to take the bus to catch a flight, plan accordingly. If major accidents/inclement weather occurs or its rush hour, the arrival time of the bus may vary. If there are people waiting, then the bus operators do their best to fit everyone on board. However, this can lead to people standing for the commute until the last stop. If you are pretty short and the bus is packed, aim to stand near the doors where the poles are or hold on to the headrests of the seats. Otherwise it's painful to hold on to the overhead bars for so long. The fare is $7.50 via SmartTrip card (can be bought at any metro station) or exact change. There is no metro operated vehicle parking at the two metro stations. The parking at Herndon-Monroe is currently free, but I imagine that will change once the silver line station there opens up. Then it will be $4.95. Dulles Airport has its own paid parking. Note that WMATA is considering ending Bus 5a when the silver line metro station at Dulles Airport opens. This is still a proposal and not yet decided upon as of February 2020.

What will $40 coupled with a dashing smile and a charming personality get you ? Well maybe that,…read morebut a more surprising answer awaits you at the end of this review. Yelp events always seem to be downtown and I live in Reston Town Center. It is clearly enlightened social consciousness rather than the furtive whispers one hears of proactively planning to partake of free wine that drives my use of public transportation to get to these events. Good planning by Miriam results in many of the events being located within walking distance of an Orange line stop. Bus Route 505 is the link between Town Center and the West Falls Church Metro station. Other than only having a $1 cover charge the best thing about this bus is that one can now use their SmartPass to pay. This aspect needs more publicity. I cite the female lollygaggers who flaunt all the principles of topology by managing to deposit well over 100 coins one by one into the boarding vending machine while everyone on the bus noticeably ages. There is no way a purse can actually hold all of those coins, then again this could be a masculine bias in volumetric perception. The relative bang for the buck that you get for your cover charge is highly correlated with the time of boarding. Basically be sure to ride after 10 pm. If your concept of value is more Swiss then don't board between 5pm and 6 pm. ESOL ? Anytime works. So in addition to Yelp parties this is also the bus one takes to get to Wolf Trap. Take the 505 to West falls Church and then get the shuttle. No problem, unless it is Sunday night. I learned the hard way that the shows let out after the last bus back to Reston. The shuttle bus driver said relax all will be good. After everyone else got off he actually drove us and 4 other friends back to Reston. The $40 tip made his day.

First of all it's a Metro station so there is only so much that can be said. However, this is one…read moreof the new Silver Line stations that we've all been waiting ages for, so it's worth some notes. First of all, multiple bathrooms that are easy to find. The stations in the District do have bathrooms but over the years they've for all practical purposes been shut for customer use. So having two or three bathrooms in a visible location and clean is a big plus. Hopefully the "clean" part is kept up. This location is also where the shuttle bus to the Smithsonian's Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum leaves from. Getting to the museum has always involved driving and paying $15 to park, or a long bus ride with potential traffic issues. This hopefully opens up the museum to those who might not otherwise have an opportunity to visit. There isn't much else around the station yet but given all the growth that sprung up around the older 1st phase stations of the Silver Line, that won't be the case for long.

I used the YC mobile app & web app twice to get him a ride. Both times it said the driver would arrive in 4 mins--guess that's their default--but actually arrived in 15+ mins. When you book, they just tell you the ride is confirmed, but don't give you any information about the driver or how long it'll take for a few good long minutes. After a loooong wait, it says your driver is 4 mins away. The last time I booked with them, I watched the car on the app that had confirmed just sit, not move an inch, for probably 5 minutes solid. Geographically he was super close. Then for about 8 minutes he just inched along until he did finally reach the neighborhood. BUT, he whizzed right by the school and went down the street and just sat there. I called the service number 3 times-- it's just an automated machine. You can request to speak to the driver. Each of the three times I selected it, hoping to let him know that the school was behind him, it ring once and then hung up. After waiting for 16 minutes total for a car that was in the beginning had been like a 6-minute drive away, I cancelled the ride and ordered an uber for $8 more, which arrived in precisely 4 minutes.
