Quick Access to I-495 and Dulles Toll Road

Aerial twilight view of Tysons, Virginia skyline with high-rise towers, illuminated offices, and the elevated Silver Line Metro tracks running above Route 7.

Adaire sits just off Route 7 and Spring Hill Road, providing quick on-ramps to both I-495 (Capital Beltway) and the Dulles Toll Road (VA-267). Access to the highways themselves is typically 2–5 minutes from the building. Adaire also offers a convenient, covered parking garage for residents.

I-495 (Capital Beltway)

I-495 connects Tysons to Maryland and to major Virginia job centers around the region. Typical non-rush travel times by car:

  • McLean – 10–15 minutes
  • Arlington (Ballston/Rosslyn) – 20–30 minutes
  • Georgetown – 25–35 minutes
  • Bethesda, MD – 20–30 minutes
  • National Landing (Amazon HQ2 area) – 25–35 minutes
  • Old Town Alexandria – 30–40 minutes
  • Reagan National Airport (DCA) – 30–40 minutes

Rush hour can extend these significantly, particularly river crossings and airport routes.

Dulles Toll Road (VA-267)

The Dulles Toll Road runs west toward Reston, Herndon, Ashburn, and Dulles International Airport. Eastbound, it becomes the Dulles Connector Road and merges into I-66 toward Arlington and DC. Typical non-rush travel times:

  • Reston Town Center – 10–15 minutes
  • Herndon – 15–20 minutes
  • Dulles International Airport (IAD) – 15–20 minutes
  • Ashburn / One Loudoun – 20–30 minutes
  • Tysons Corner Center / Galleria – 5–10 minutes

The Real Advantage

What matters most about living here isn’t the exact minutes it may take to get somewhere by car — it’s the optionality. From Adaire, you can:

  • Walk across the street to Spring Hill Metro for DC commutes
  • Take 267 west for airport runs or tech corridor meetings
  • Jump on 495 for regional travel across Northern Virginia or into Maryland

When traffic patterns shift daily in Tysons, being this close to both Metro and two primary highways provides meaningful flexibility.
