Location

Rosslyn /ˈrɒzlɪn/ is the westernmost station on the shared segment of the Blue, Orange, and Silver lines of the Washington Metro. It is located in the Rosslyn neighborhood of Arlington, Virginia, United States. Rosslyn is the first station in Virginia heading westward from the District on the Orange and Silver Lines and southward on the Blue Lines. It is one of four interchange points on the Metrorail system west of the Potomac River and located in a growing business district.

Depending on the year, Rosslyn is the busiest, or one of the busiest stations outside the District of Columbia, along with Pentagon City and Pentagon, which are also in Arlington, and Silver Spring and Shady Grove in Montgomery County, Maryland. Rosslyn is the biggest choke point of the Metro system. Due to this, planners are considering adding another station in the Rosslyn neighborhood, possibly as part of an inner loop through Washington and Arlington.[5]

Station layout

Rosslyn is one of two stations (the other being the Pentagon station) at which trains going one direction are boarded on a different station level than trains going the other direction, as a way to prevent an at-grade crossing. This is because the Orange/Silver and Blue lines split apart an extremely short distance from the station.[10] This ensures that no trains traveling in opposite directions share a track.[11]

Rosslyn is the deepest station on the three lines servicing it. The mezzanine and upper platform are 103 feet (31 m) below the Fort Myer Drive street-level entrance; the lower platform is 117 feet (36 m) below the entrance.[12][13][14] This because its neighborhood is on a bluff over the Potomac River, while its shared rail line into Washington passes through a rock-bored tunnel up to 101 feet (31 m)[15] beneath the river surface. The station's depth also takes advantage of the strength and watertightness of the bedrock 40 feet (12 m) below the surface.[16] An escalator ride between the street and mezzanine levels takes about three minutes.[17]

It is one of six stations on the Metro with platform-level fare gates and elevators (the other five being the Arlington Cemetery, Judiciary Square, Pentagon, Smithsonian (eastbound only), and Tenleytown–AU stations). A new bank of three high-speed elevators and an expanded mezzanine opened officially on October 7, 2013.[18] It replaces the original single street elevator, cutting elevator transit time from about a minute to about 17 seconds. The underground hallway to the new elevator bank contains a four-coffered arch like most underground stops on the Red Line that were opened after 1980. This is the only stop on the Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines with this arch. It is also the only stop in the system that contains both the waffle and four-coffer arch design.
