My concern with the project is that virtually every place in DC that is getting streetcars is first having a phase with articulated buses. This is based on the theory that you increase transit capacity in increments: limited conventional bus -> frequent conventional bus -> articulated bus -> streetcar.

Considering that DC has far more experience with transit and urban planning, I'm concerned that Arlington isn't following DC's lead and instead leapfrogging articulated buses and going straight to streetcars. Why would this be a good idea for Arlington even though they're not doing it that way in DC?
