When creating the map, I found that it helped me to visualize the distance and locations served by the metro, as well as those that aren’t. It shows the differences between the locations of the stations in Arlington and Fairfax County, which relates to my research question. Creating the map, however, does not help address the reasons behind the locations of the stations and the thoughts had by the planners making these decisions.
