Our signaling system keeps trains safely spaced and moving, and it’s starting to show its age. The system dates to some of Metro’s earliest years. Here’s how it works, and why we need a new one: ggwash.org/view/101495/...

Cheering on the @capitals.bsky.social vs New Jersey Devils? If coming from Shady Grove on the Red Line, build in more time due to the closure between Medical Center & Friendship Heights.

Pro Tip: If driving & parking at Shady Grove, consider parking at Greenbelt to avoid delays to Gallery Place. 🏒

Check out the vibrant mural at our New Carrollton parking garage! 😍

In Sept, we opened the new facility and reopened the old, now renovated garage. A big thank you to our Art in Transit Program for their work in beautifying this space for our customers and employees alike.

Every day, we push to get better. That includes improving our bus arrival time predictions. 🚌

In the first quarter of FY26, those predictions provided reliable, real-time information for nearly 90% of bus trips. 👏

Shorter waits, faster rides. In just three years, we’ve gone from 5% to 70% of Metrorail customers waiting less than six minutes for their train. 👍

Check out our dedicated crew! Over the weekend, we repaired the safety walk and concrete on the Red Line. This involved breaking up existing concrete and installing new concrete and rebar to enhance strength, stability, and durability and prevent cracks and structural issues. 🚧
