Tysons Transportation Association

The goal of the Tysons Transportation Association (TYTRAN) is to serve as “Tysons’s one-stop shop for transportation.”  Since 1981, TYTRAN has worked tirelessly to achieve an effective, coordinated transportation system that supports the community’s economic prosperity and quality of life. TYTRAN is well known for successful transportation solutions and strategies that have been of tremendous benefit to Tysons Corner businesses, their employees, landowners and the residents.

Through events, publications, and website, TYTRAN provides the most up-to-the-minute transportation information and solutions for Tysons Corner businesses, residents, and employees.  The association provides vital advocacy for transportation improvements, appropriate development policies, and implementation of effective transportation demand management strategies, accomplished through timely and informative meetings and forums and coordination with like-minded public and private organizations.

For more information on TYTRAN, send us an email at info@tytran.org or call 703-799-5394.


TYTRAN Strongly Supports Recommendations
of the Tysons Land Use Task Force

On September 22, Fairfax County's Board of Supervisors unanimously accepted the recommendations of the Tysons Land Use Task Force to transform Tysons Corner from its current suburban focus to a transit-oriented urban area.  TYTRAN has issued the following statement applauding the action of the Board of Supervisors and supporting the recommendations of the Task Force. 

VIEW TYTRAN STATEMENT

We appreciate the work of the task force members and leaders, as well as, Fairfax County planning staff over the last three and a half years in creating this plan.  TYTRAN has three representatives on the Task Force, Keith Turner, West*Group and TYTRAN Chairman; John Harrison, Macerich; and Eric Bahr, Capital One.  Delegate Jim Scott, a TYTRAN Board Member, is also a Task Force member.  They have ably represented the interests of the business community, particularly with respect to transportation and transportation demand management issues.


Fairfax County's Transit Development Plan

Fairfax County is developing a comprehensive 10-year plan for Fairfax Connector and Metrobus service countywide, called the Transit Development Plan (TDP).

The TDP is a study designed to blend, coordinate and optimize existing Metrobus and Fairfax Connector services and recommend service and policy enhancements and adjustments to more effectively and efficiently meet the public transportation needs of Fairfax County residents, employees and visitors.  The purpose of the TDP is to evaluate existing and proposed bus services in light of changing county demographics and land use to ensure that limited resources are utilized in the best way possible.

An important aspect of the study is to obtain input from the public and business communities as to the types of service that they would like to see as the County makes changes to the bus service in the County.

To learn more about the study, please visit http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/fcdot/tdp.htm.  We strongly encourage you to submit comments via the comment form on the website to let the study team know your thoughts and ideas. You are encouraged to forward the link for this comment opportunity to your employees, coworkers, and neighbors.
