Work has begun at three of the five stations. All of the work being done is preparatory.

At Herndon the contractor installing the 34.5 KV power feed bus that runs the full length of the route was excavating the shafts to tunnel the power conduits under the westbound Dulles Access Road. Similar work was being done in front and west of the site of the Dulles Airport station.

Crushed stone for the relocated westbound Dulles Access Road sub grade at the Innovation station was being put down east of a section that has been paved.

The abutments west of Sulley Road VA-28 for the bridge over Horsepen Run are done. DCMP has announced that the beams for the bridges will be set during the week of 04 06 2015.

South of the cell-phone parking lot a traveling crane to be used to set the elevated spans is being assembled. The ground along Autopilot Drive north of Rudder Road is being prepared to accommodated the traveling crane.

Column construction continues north of Materials Road. Many of them now have column cap on them. Several of the yard lead column have begun coming out of the ground.

The right shoulder of the eastbound Dulles Greenway has been closed south of Old Ox Road in the area of the elevated flyover to the median.

Nothing has begun at the sites of the Loudoun Gateway (VA-606) and Ashburn (VA-722) stations.

On a side note. You will be able to see a movie at the Starplex multi screen cinema adjacent to the Ashburn station at Loudoun Station.

Preparation of the grade for the test track continues along the right of way. Track has been laid from the south end of the test track to just south of the contractor right of way access location south of Greenbelt Road.
