Prince William County’s first commuter parking garage now provides a central transit hub for daily commuters in the Route 1, I-95, and Route 234 corridors. Located off Opitz Boulevard, the Neabsco Commuter Parking Garage includes 1,400 parking spaces with real-time digital availability signage, 70 electric vehicle charging stations, and a new sidewalk connection to improve pedestrian access along River Rock Way.
The garage supports OmniRide bus routes, including express services and commuter options to the Navy Yard and Metro stations, while also serving as alternate parking for nearby destinations like Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center and Stonebridge at Potomac Town Center. Funded by federal, state, and Northern Virginia Transportation Authority resources, the facility represents a major investment in the region’s long-term transit infrastructure.
Delivering the County’s First Commuter Garage
As Prince William County’s first commuter garage, the project required careful coordination among County staff, the design-build team, permitting authorities, and funding partners. ATCS played a key role in construction oversight, inspection, and program controls.
We helped address early permitting issues that threatened schedule delays by establishing a coordinated process framework with the County, the design-builder, and the engineer-of-record. This approach allowed portions of the work to proceed under partial approvals, mitigating further delays and keeping the project moving.
Ensuring Construction Quality and Schedule Accountability
Throughout the construction phase, ATCS provided on-site inspection, quality assurance oversight, schedule reviews, and documentation management. We managed construction meetings and field activities, reviewed contractor pay applications and change orders, and audited material submittals to ensure compliance with contract requirements and VDOT standards.
Our team led schedule reviews and analyzed time extension claims, including a major Time Impact Analysis involving a request for 240 additional days and nearly $1 million in added compensation. Through independent review and interviews with County staff, ATCS identified documentation gaps and contractor-side submission delays as the primary drivers of impact, supporting the County’s ability to resolve the claim strategically and avoid unnecessary cost.
Advancing Regional Transit Capacity
The completed garage provides an integrated solution to parking demand and regional commuting needs, relieving pressure on existing lots like Horner Road and Potomac Mills. As a key part of the County’s broader transportation network, the facility enhances transit options for residents while reflecting Prince William County’s long-term planning and investment in mobility and connectivity.
