[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is WMATA constructing a light rail line and not a subway????[/quote] Because the cost of a subway was project crushing. If you add in the money that the USDOT, WMATA and MDOT and a private corporation for a public-private joint project, it was still significantly short of the project costs for a subway. No one could afford the costs for putting this underground.[/quote]
