While 🚌 reliability is impacted by many factors, traffic being biggest, we are constantly working on bus service improvements. We are piloting headway mgmt vs schedule mgmt on C53 to enhance reliability by reduce bunching-gapping. Team is working hard focused on our customers.👇
Starting today on the C53 route, we’re rolling out a new plan to manage bus headways that will increase reliability, reduce bunching/crowding, and ultimately make trips faster! 🚍 Watch below.

Another month of US transit data is just in, & DC's WMATA remains the fastest-growing major US transit agency, with ridership up 10% compared to last year!
King County Metro (Seattle, +7%) & SEPTA (Philly, +5.3%) have performed well, while LA Metro & NJTransit have lost riders🧵

On behalf of the entire @wmata.com family I want to pass along our thoughts & love to the two WVA National Guardsmen tragically shot today in DC. Guardsmen have been patrolling Metro & I thx them daily for their service. MTPD is assisting FBI & MPD with the investigation.

She was a bus driver who answered questions from a curious 5th grader. A decade later, they reconnected — as colleagues | CNN
Though Sam Mencimer didn’t know it at the time, all those moments with his favorite bus driver, Joy Kenley – the never-ending questions, the bus depot tour – would have a lasting impact on his life.

Morning CM. Just some add’l context on incident. MTPD was doing regular fare enforcement (IRS is on federal Taskforce & sometimes supports MTPD). An adult female was caught fraudulently using a Kids Ride Free card then punched an officer in the face. She was arrested for assaulting a police officer.
I was on the ground earlier today at the Petworth Metro Station after I received troubling reports from neighbors about IRS Criminal Investigation agents working with Transit Police to interrogate riders on WMATA buses.

Appreciate the leadership of the VA SJ28 Committee leaders who are working to address @wmata.com longterm funding needs. Next session is time to solve funding once & for all. The support of Metro by our partners is truly appreciated & why Metro was named top transit agency in US.

(Side note: this Facebook page for DC tourists is just constantly full of praise for our city. People are constantly praising our residents, transit, offerings. I never see complaints about crime or anything else)
