Dulles Rail board promises more transparency

The local airports authority admits: It messed up. The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority is promising to do a turnaround from its secretive dealings that frustrated local residents and leaders earlier this year while negotiating funding for the second phase of Dulles Rail, which the authority is building.

“We made a mistake, I have to confess. We should have been prepared for this,” said MWAA’s Mame Reiley at a meeting Wednesday. “To be transparent — we’ve all kind of learned our lesson.”
