Is there any place to read up on the results of this meeting? I have wondered why it so difficult to A - find the Loudoun county bus schedule, and B - Interpret it.

I am not sure where they would post the minutes of the meeting. May be you should send an email to DEPT-TRANS-RIDESHARE@loudoun.gov, may be someone will respond. I attended the meeting and found it to be quite informative.

Here is the link to the schedule :
http://inetdocs.loudoun.gov/transportation/docs/transit_/commuterbusserv_/schedules_/normaloperating_/dntctodcpentago-1/dntctodcpentago.pdf

The schedule is kind of clear, it states approxmately what times the bus leave Dulles North Transit Center and what times the bus leave Washington D.C / Rosslyn in the evening. If you have better ideas you can email it to the above address.

Here is the link to the website:
http://www.loudoun.gov/bus/

If you sign up to their free notification service, they'll email you if there is a change in service or if there is change in the schedule.

What they mentioned that they are very close to opening the park and ride lots close to Harris-Teeter @ Broadlands.

They mentioned that they are planning to open couple of more park and ride lots shortly, one off of Ryan Road and the other in Brambleton.

Also they may add few more buses from Dulles North Transit center to West Falls Church Metro station in the near term.
