Proposed CUE Bus Routes
Thank you for your interest in this topic. The comment period has concluded.
Shorter waits! Better bus routes!
Earlier this year, we asked for your priorities for the CUE bus system. Your number one priority was more frequent service. We heard you! Three CUE routes with better frequencies are proposed to replace the existing Green and Gold routes. Additionally, Metrobus and Fairfax Connector have recently added service in the city. Between the proposed CUE routes and other bus services, getting around by bus will be easier.
Background
The city is in the process of updating its transit development plan (TDP). A TDP is a planning document that helps CUE and the city identify goals, evaluate existing conditions and additional needs, and identify ways to meet those needs in both the near- and long- term. A transit development plan is also required by the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation to obtain operating and capital funding or the CUE Bus service, and the plan must be updated every five years.

Share Please remove the cue bus route from Warwick Ave and redirect to Fairfax blvd. The bus is a big disturbance in our residential neighborhood. Me and my neighbors all agree it rarely has many riders getting on or off here and we don’t want it coming through here anymore. on Facebook Share Please remove the cue bus route from Warwick Ave and redirect to Fairfax blvd.

Jeff Reed asked about 2 months agoThank you for your comment. Yes, Stop 130 (Chain Bridge Road at Whitehead Street) would be removed as part of the current proposal. The nearest remaining northbound stop to Vienna Metro station would be located 600 feet east at University Drive at Democracy Lane.

Share Me gustan las nuevas rutas, aunque uso el verde 2 para llegar a Nutley y Barrick desde Main Street, por lo que sería difícil para mí como mujer mayor con problemas de cadera y rodilla. Quiero agregar que su conductor verde 1, es una señora con anteojos azules y aretes grandes en la mañana es muy paciente y amable, me cuesta caminar y ella siempre me saluda con una sonrisa y es muy paciente. Siempre disfruto verla en la mañana. on Facebook Share Me gustan las nuevas rutas, aunque uso el verde 2 para llegar a Nutley y Barrick desde Main Street, por lo que sería difícil para mí como mujer mayor con problemas de cadera y rodilla.

Share Question, is there a plan to remove CUE bus stops from in front of resident homes through neighborhoods? I can’t imagine residents enjoy the excess litter and unruliness sometimes witnessed when driving or walking the neighborhood. Maybe moving the stops to a commercialized area of the neighborhoods would be beneficial. on Facebook Share Question, is there a plan to remove CUE bus stops from in front of resident homes through neighborhoods?

Hi I was asking how does it work do you just board the bus and leave whenever it’s your stop?
Ayoub asked about 1 month agoThank you for your comment. This is correct. With CUE's current fare-free operations, riders board the bus when it arrives at the bus stop without having to pay a fare. When the bus is approaching your stop, we ask that you please pull the cord inside the bus to signal to the bus operator that you'd like to get off at the next stop.

Share One last question I forgot on my previous submission. Is the cut to Chain Bridge road due to low ridership or is it a traffic issue? I know during peak times there is a lot of backup in that area so I'm just curious. on Facebook Share One last question I forgot on my previous submission.

Diana asked about 2 months agoThank you for your comment. CUE service is proposed to be removed from Chain Bridge Road north of Main Street primarily due to low ridership.
