Who Rides The Metro?

Not the folks who make the important decisions about how it runs. The WaPo has a pretty hard charging piece in the Metro section today reporting that many of the Metro's board members don't ride the bus or the train yet are tasked with making the final call on everything from fares to scheduling.

Metro is facing yet another big budget shortfall but is also finally making moves towards the silver line to Dulles and the purple line beltway style loop, at least in MD. Greater Greater Washington stays way on top of these issues and is certainly a must read if you have a stake in the DC Metro.

If you're on the Facebook you can now become of fan of WMATA as well.
