The WMATA Board of Directors approved a $4.957 billion capital and operating budget aimed toward improving service without raising fares. “The approved budget continues to fund Metro at levels where service is safe, frequent and reliable. In recent years, Metro has seen increased ridership thanks to those tenets and expects that trend to continue with additional Metrorail service and a revamped bus network coming in June.”
