We’ve all been there. There’s someplace you need to go, and you need to get there as fast as you can.
It’d be nice if we had Star Trek transporter technology so we could just beam ourselves there instantaneously. Until we figure out how, the best way is to hop into your Earth-bound vehicle and drive the smooth, seamless lanes of the 66 Express Outside the Beltway.
But who benefits from taking those express lanes, anyway?
The short answer is “everyone.” Who doesn’t want to spend less time sitting in traffic and more time at your destination? Whether that’s commuters getting to the office, contractors getting to a job, travelers getting to the airport, or anyone who just wants to get back home again, there are numerous reasons to choose the 66 Express Outside the Beltway for a predictable, reliable, congestion-avoiding trip east or west along the I-66 corridor.
Let’s look at a few examples of people who benefit from the consistent speeds and travel-times of the 66 Express:
Connie the Commuter
As a working mother, Connie’s never sure exactly when to leave the house. She has to drop off the kids at daycare and get to the office in Arlington on time, and it never seems early enough. Plus, traffic delays back to Manassas sometimes make her late to the daycare center, so she gets hit with an extra charge.
So she gets time-certainty by taking the 66 Express. With no congestion to slow her down, she can leave the house at the same time every day. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, Connie carpools with a couple of coworkers so they can take advantage of HOV3+ mode and ride the lanes for free! No matter her commuting method, every day Connie is back in time to pick up the kids and gets home to enjoy the evening with her family.
Craig the Contractor
With construction booming in Northern Virginia, Craig’s a busy man. He leads a team of skilled builders performing a series of projects around the region, and he needs to know they can make it to the jobsite on time every day. The less time on the road, the more time he has on the jobsite to complete projects, resulting in satisfied customers.
Craig and his team rely on the 66 Express to rapidly move along the I-66 corridor. This gives him confidence when scheduling jobs and estimating completion dates, because he knows his team will be there on time to complete any job.
Dave the Delivery Guy
Ever since COVID, Dave has been in high demand. Deliveries are through the roof, and the orders keep coming in. Dave needs to promise both the sender and the recipient that the packages will be delivered on time. It’s a never-ending time-crunch.
Dave likes the efficiency of the 66 Express. Not only does it bypass traffic, avoiding the stop-and-go provides fuel efficiency and helps keep transport costs down. Plus, he stays on schedule every day.
Frank the First Responder
In Frank’s line of work, time is of the highest essence every day. He can’t afford to slow down in heavy traffic, because so much is at stake. Even the flashing lights and blaring siren are no guarantee of the fastest response.
When an emergency call comes in, Frank always uses the 66 Express Outside the Beltway to get to the address – and what’s more, emergency vehicles pursuing an emergency situation can take the lanes free of charge.
Paula the Appointment Keeper
She may be retired, but Paula maintains an active lifestyle. Still, she sees doctors regularly and has a calendar of appointments to keep. Her adult children help manage her time, which can be difficult when there’s I-66 traffic to contend with.
So the kids sign Paula up for an E-ZPass account, and she zips from appointment to appointment without stressing out that she’ll miss one and have to reschedule. That lack of frustration makes the 66 Express Outside the Beltway more than worth it.
Ruby the Recreationist
Ruby is all about work/life balance. Sure, she has to get to her job in DC – but she considers her friends, family, and frequent hikes in the mountains just as important.
Her solution? The 66 Express Outside the Beltway. Not only does she get to work on time, she can start hiking her favorite trail sooner. Ruby is the embodiment of the slogan “Sit Less, Live More.”
The purpose of the 66 Express Outside the Beltway is to enhance the quality of life for everyone who lives, works, and plays in Northern Virginia. Whether your goal is to get to work on time, get back home quicker, or get to that birthday party in time to yell “Surprise!”, the 66 Express is your best bet for reliable, dependable, consistent travel any time, any day.
That is, until we get those transporters.
