Metro serves the Washington DC metropolitan area and provides approximately 79 million annual trips on 136 bus lines.
The program includes completion of the multi-year platform reconstruction effort at 20 outdoor rail stations and several large-scale construction projects, including a major rehabilitation of the Yellow Line’s Potomac River tunnel and bridge crossing.
Metro said it expects to update its service plans before the end of the calendar year.
Service is now available for the entire length of the Green Line and most of the Yellow Line.
LIRR, Miami-Dade, and Houston Metro were top winners in safety category. DART, Sound Transit, and WMATA named tops in security.
The expansion will provide options after the shutdown of several Alexandria Metro stations beginning May 25.
The incident, which happened after the train left the station on Sunday afternoon, was captured on video by a rider.
The agency purchased an existing building near L'Enfant Plaza for its new DC headquarters.
The service will be offered seven days a week for trips within WMATA’s service area between midnight and 4 a.m. when its rail system is closed.
Local officials are leading an effort to restore service hours the agency cut beginning with its SafeTrack rebuilding effort in 2016.
