Inquiry
The main intersection in front of our new office building is located 2.0 miles from one metrorail station and 3.2 miles from another. However, the County provides shuttle bus connections from this main intersection to both nearby metrrail stations. These 2 shuttle busses run every half hour from 6:00-9:00 am and 3:30-7:30 pm Monday-Friday for a total of 15 trips per weekday during the most frequent hours communting hours to and from this office building. Since we have 2 shuttle bus lines within 1/4 mile of the building running directly to metrorail stations and feel that the intent of the Credit is clearly met, we are seeking a credit equivalence to Site Credit 4.1.
