    One way to do it would be with a blend.

    1. Draw two lines with a stroke and no fill.
    2. In the Stroke panel, choose the first profile and increase the line weight.
    3. Apply a dashed line.
    4. Choose Object > Blend > Make.
    5. Then choose Object > Blend > Options.
    6. Change to Specified Steps and turn on Preview.
    7. Only the beginning and ending paths are selectable in a blend, and the blend acts like a group. You can use the direct selection tool to change the shape of the beginning and ending paths, or to change any of the stroke characteristics of the paths.
