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.

Famous quotes containing the words planned and/or stations:
“Every day care center, whether it knows it or not, is a school. The choice is never between custodial care and education. The choice is between unplanned and planned education, between conscious and unconscious education, between bad education and good education.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
“A reader who quarrels with postulates, who dislikes Hamlet because he does not believe that there are ghosts or that people speak in pentameters, clearly has no business in literature. He cannot distinguish fiction from fact, and belongs in the same category as the people who send cheques to radio stations for the relief of suffering heroines in soap operas.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
