Spring Hill station (preliminary namesTysons West, Tysons–Spring Hill Road)[3][4] is aWashington Metro station inFairfax County,Virginia, on theSilver Line. Located inTysons, it began operation on July 26, 2014. The station is located in the central median ofLeesburg Pike (SR 7) just west of Spring Hill Road.

There had been somecontroversy about whether to build the rail through Tysons below ground or on elevated tracks. The efforts to build a tunnel through all of Tysons failed, and the current design has the main platform with a height of 48 ft (15 m) at its east end and 51 ft (16 m) at its west end.[5]

The station is about 5.8 miles (9.3 km) fromWiehle–Reston East, the next station to the west, but only about 0.8 miles (1.3 km) fromGreensboro directly to the southeast.

Spring Hill is the least used DC Metro station in Fairfax County at 609 entries per weekday in 2023.[6]
