Your Bus Line Is About to Change — Here's How

View all City Cast DC episodes

Your bus lines are changing! That’s right – starting on June 29th, the bus lines that you take to go to work, to see friends, those are getting a pretty major makeover. Every last line in the Metrobus system is gonna have a new name. Most of them are gonna have new routes. Some will have new stops. It’s like the big bang of buses. Now, we had a lotta questions about this, so we talked to Allison Davis who leads Metro’s Office of Planning about the thought behind this and how you can prepare for the upcoming changes.

Also, if you have questions or concerns you'd like us to raise — about your bus lines or anything else — leave us a voicemail at 202-642-2654 or send an email or voice memo to dc@citycast.fm.
