    City of Alexandria, Virginia __________________ MEMORANDUM DATE: APRIL 19, 2017 TO: MEMBERS OF THE TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION FROM: T&ES STAFF SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM #2 – ITEMS FOR CONSENT ISSUE: Staff update to Transportation Commission on various ongoing projects. RECOMMENDATION: That the Commission receive the items for consent. A. WMATA (Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority) On March 23, 2017 the WMATA Board approved the FY18 Operating ($1.825B) and Capital ($1.25B) budgets, the FY18-23 Capital Improvement Program ($7.2B), and a one-year extension to the Capital Funding Agreement (CFA). The operating budget includes a fare increase for Metrobus and Metrorail, a reduction in Metrobus and Metrorail service, internal management actions, and increased jurisdictional subsidies. The capital budget focuses investments on state of good repair, safety, and system reliability projects and programs. Beginning July 1, 2017, the following changes will occur. Please note the Alexandria-specific impacts: Metrobus Fare: o Base fare increase from $1.75/trip to $2/trip o Senior/Disabled fare increase from $0.85/trip to $1/trip Metrorail Fare: o Peak fare increase of $0.10 o off-peak fare increase of $0.25 MetroAccess: o Maximum fare remains $6.50 Metrobus Service Changes: o Elimination of the 28X (Leesburg Pike Limited Line) and 7X (Lincolnia-Mark Center-Southern Towers-Pentagon) , o Improvements to the 28A (Leesburg Pike Line) and 7W (Lincolnia-Mark Center- Southern Towers-Pentagon) Metrorail Service Changes: o Widen Yellow Line peak headway from 6 minutes to 8 minutes, 1 o Improve Blue Line peak headways from 12 minutes to 8 minutes.

  • Service and Fare Opportunities
    Finance and Capital Committee Information Item III-A June 2, 2021 Service and Fare Opportunities 4 of 69 Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Board Action/Information Summary MEAD Number: Resolution: Action Information 202277 Yes No TITLE: Service and Fare Opportunities PRESENTATION SUMMARY: In support of the region’s pandemic recovery, staff will present concepts for Board consideration to return to pre-pandemic service levels while adapting to current and future customer needs and fare policy changes to advance equity and ridership. PURPOSE: To provide information and considerations on potential service and fare concepts for supporting pandemic recovery in the region. DESCRIPTION: This presentation provides information for the Board’s consideration regarding potential service and fare concepts to support pandemic recovery in the region. Key Highlights: • The Washington area is rapidly reopening and Metro remains committed to supporting recovery in the region. • Management has developed service and fare concepts that better meet the needs of existing riders, reflect new travel patterns and lifestyle changes, as well as attract returning and new customers. • Potential service improvements for this fall include more frequent all day service, offering 12 minutes or better service on six rail and 20 bus lines, and additional improvements to base service levels on other bus lines. • Another potential enhancement would extend rail service to midnight seven days a week, beginning this summer. • Proposed changes would serve customers for all trip purposes as the region reopens and especially benefit low-income and minority riders in the region. • Opportunities to simplify fares and support emerging travel patterns in the near-term include free rail-bus transfers, lower 7-day regional bus pass prices, $2 flat fares on weekends, and improved passes, as well as continued rollout of mobile payment and the low-income fare pilot.
