Planned Stations
A new line, to be called the Silver Line, is planned for the system; it will create 11 new stations and share 18 stations with the Orange and Blue lines. Current estimates are for the first phase of the project, 5 stations, to be complete by 2013. The second phase does not yet have funding nor an official start date, but completion is estimated for as early as 2016. When finished, the line's termini will be Route 772 (western) and Stadium–Armory (eastern); Reston - Wiehle Avenue will be the Phase I western terminus.
Potomac Yard is to be an infill station between Braddock Road and National Airport on the Yellow and Blue lines.
