WMATA & Metro have opened up a new section of their website for events surrounding the inaugural. They’ll be closing the Mall entrance of Smithsonian Metro, and the whole station at Navy/Archives. In addition, the system will be running rush hour scheduling through 7pm that day, and they’ll be opening early and staying open late.
But, will the fix the escalators? Foggy Bottom’s a mess, and a commenter tells us that Capitol South is just as bad. Get ready for a day in the national spotlight, Metro. Here’s hoping you’re ready.
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
From the site: Customers should expect that many rail station escalators will be turned off to help meter large crowds for safety.
