The Washington Union Station Expansion Project will expand and modernize Washington Union Station as the National Capital Region's principal intermodal transportation hub. The concepts illustrate different options for the major project elements that will shape the layout of the station expansion, including realigned and improved tracks and platforms; additional public concourses; a new train hall; parking, bus, taxi, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, while preserving the historically significant station building.

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will share for public review the Project concepts and the screening criteria by which the concepts are being evaluated and advanced for further study in the Environmental Impact Statement. This meeting is also part of the concurrent Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) consultation process.
