Enjoyed getting out to thx the incredible @wmata team launching Better Bus. Got to hand out cold water & snacks on a hot day to operators, supervisors & some of our volunteer admin team. This is a Metro-wide team effort to ensure customers have the info they need to get around.

In rural areas, there is a need for tailored #microtransit strategies that emphasize incremental service rollouts, community engagement, and adaptive operational models to ensure effectiveness, via TRB's #TCRP and @FoursquareITP.

We’re only 100 DAYS AWAY from the launch of Metro’s new bus network on Sunday, June 29! Here’s a look at what it takes to update the nearly 7,000 bus stop signs in our system. Did you know we had *that* many signs? 🤯 Check out the process!

[Metro Forward @wmata]

We’re thrilled to see the first new bus signs go up as part of our Better Bus initiative! These temporary signs show the current route name & the new route name, which will go into effect on 6/29. Thanks to our crews responsible for changing out over 7k signs across the region!

[Metro Forward @wmata]

About 7,000 bus stop signs are being updated for our Better Bus launch on June 29. Metro is making signs easier to read & optimizing service across the region. Plus, our 202-GO-METRO will help customers contact customer service for trip planning & more. ➡️ https://t.co/emOnUYdEUY

Thank you for getting me around in 2024 @wmata!!

@NickAddamo @mtamaryland Ugh Nick Amtrak only has two carry-on bike tickets per trip on the Floridian and otherwise requires me to buy a bike box so I reallllly need MARC to get me and my bike to Cumberland!!!

Never not fangirling over the Columbia Road redesign 😍

[Laura Duke @LauraDuke123]

@NickAddamo @DDOTDC @AdMoBID It’s amazing!! I biked to Columbia Heights Metro the other day and felt like I flew there 🥲

[Laura Duke @LauraDuke123]

Hello @wmata the operator on the 90 bus # 3316 is really great and was very helpful when someone needed help getting off the bus!

[Randy Clarke @wmataGM]

While we wait for election results here’s a good summary by @washingtonpost @rachelweinerwp on @wmata’s Better Bus network re-design and how it is driven by community engagement so we can make the 🚌 system work for more people, more efficiently. #wmata https://t.co/bJM7IAlRp5
