<p>I have read a few articles on this, seems to be very intriguing. Can anyone give me some more information on what is to be constructed and when it will be complete?</p>

<p>will it ever look like this and if so how long of a project is this?</p>

3

<p>sorry i keep posting but i just remembered another question i was going to ask…on top on this (potential) project, what other projects are in the making at UMCP?</p>

4

<p>Wow, I’ve never seen this list before…you’d have to search further on UMD.edu to get more details on each of these…</p>

<p>that is an absolute ridiculous amount of money being pumped into the university!</p>

6

<p>That picture looks like an area of the inner harbor, or possibly a mall I’ve been to in Arlington.</p>

7

<p>latest news on this project, anyone?</p>

8

<p>also whats the most recent news with the purple line?</p>

9

<p>i don’t think theyre even going to be starting that for a couple years…don’t get your hopes up. that said, i do hope it goes to tysons corner :D</p>

10

<p>what’s in Tyson’s Corner? (I am new obviously)</p>

11

<p>Whichever line is running to Tysons corner is completely up, but the station hasn’t been completed and I’m not sure if it’s connected to anything. (I meet my aunt there about once a month)</p>

<p>It’s a higher end mall in Northern VA. Well Tyson’s 2 is high end, Tyson’s one is just higher end than PG plaza.</p>

12

<p>i’ve heard the purple line is going to go from college park to bethesda to either tysons corner or dulles but i also heard it won’t be started until 2012 D:
and construction always takes a century.</p>

13

<p>Dulles isn’t going up yet. And I don’t know when it opens, I just know it’s there.</p>

14

<p>The Purple Line is going to be from Bethesda to New Carrollton, with stops along the way, including Silver Spring and UMD. The Silver Line is the one that goes to Tysons and Dulles. I think the Tysons portion is supposed to be completed by 2013 (if you drive around there you’ll see they’ve built a LOT of the overhead track support), and the Dulles extension by 2013. I’m sure there’ll be delays in construction though :|</p>
