Description: The Census Tract Population Near Bus Stops and Rail Stations layer was created for the Strategic Plan Housing and Neighborhood Livability Dashboard to estimate bus and rail access throughout the county.Bus and rail stops were retrieved through a static GTFS Feed or shapefile for the following services and agencies: Alexandria DASH, Amtrak, Fairfax City CUE, Fairfax Connector, Loudoun County Transit, OmniRide, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) and Virginia Railway Express (VRE).GTFS FeedsART: https://data.trilliumtransit.com/gtfs/altavista-va-us/altavista-va-us.zip DASH: http://dashbus.com/google_transit.zip Fairfax Connector: https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/connector/sites/connector/files/assets/connector_gtfs.zip Alternative link: https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/connector/bustracker/data/gtfsrtLoudoun County: https://www.loudoun.gov/loudountransitgtfs OmniRide: http://omniride.com/omniride/assets/File/google_transit.zip WMATA bus: https://api.wmata.com/gtfs/bus-gtfs-static.zipWMATA rail: https://api.wmata.com/gtfs/rail-gtfs-static.zip VRE: https://gtfs.vre.org/containercdngtfsupload/google_transit.zip Manual DownloadsAmtrak (from USDOT): https://data-usdot.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/amtrak-stations/explore?location=35.522786%2C-80.613561%2C4.43 Fairfax CUE: https://www.fairfaxva.gov/Services/CUE-Bus/Schedules-and-MapsVirginia Railway Express (alternative to GTFS feed): https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/DCGIS::virginia-railway-express-stations/explore?location=38.851008%2C-77.162867%2C12Bus access is defined as living within 0.25 mi. of a bus stop managed by the following agencies that serve Fairfax County: Alexandria DASH, Fairfax Connector, Fairfax City CUE, Loudoun County Transit, OmniRide and WMATA.Rail access is separated into three metrics: living within 0.5 mi. of a WMATA heavy rail station, 1 mi. from a VRE commuter rail station and 1 mi. from an Amtrak intercity passenger rail station.The above distances to a bus stop or rail station are based on USDOT's accessibility standards for public transportation. Amtrak is not part of public transportation, but 1 mi. was used to estimate accessibility.For more information, please contact the Department of Management and Budget’s Countywide Data Analytics team.Contact: Department of Management and BudgetEmail: DMB-DataAnalytics@fairfaxcounty.govData Accessibility: Publicly AvailableUpdate Frequency: As NeededLast Revision Date: 3/27/2026Creation Date: 9/15/2025Layer Name: DMBMGR.TRANSIT_ACCESS
