I want to thank Governor Wes Moore for allocating $150m in additional Metro Forward funding in his budget. #wmata is critical to the #DMV & Maryland and this funding is a big step in preventing major service cuts & staff layoffs. Appreciate your leadership Wes Moore



Today, Metro & MD Delegate Jazz Lewis announced $17M in state funding for the Capitol Heights Metro Station transit-oriented development project. This initiative will boost community growth by integrating residential & retail. Learn more: wmata.com/about/news/Met… #wmata


Exciting one: in a report to the General Assembly, MTA Maryland has informed us that they will seek a fed grant for the Brunswick Line Improvement Project to facilitate future increased service on the MARC rail.
