Parking add-on nixed at Vienna Metro

The Fairfax County Board of Supervisors has placed an indefinite hold on plans to add more than 1,000 parking spots at the Vienna Metrorail station, citing parking improvements at nearby stations and a lack of public outcry when a surface lot at Vienna closed.

“The simple fact of the matter is, when we closed the temporary parking lot there, we didn’t get any complaints,” said Board Supervisor Linda Q. Smyth, D. “We were expecting to be inundated, and we didn’t get any.”
