Washington D.C.: Circulator bus system will begin phasing out Oct. 1 and end this year

(WaPo) The Circulator bus system will be phased out beginning Oct. 1 and fully end by Dec. 31, the D.C. Department of Transportation announced Monday.

On Oct. 1, the Rosslyn-Dupont Circle bus route will be terminated, and all other routes will stop running earlier in the evening. The Woodley Park-Adams Morgan, Georgetown-Union Station, Congress Heights-Union Station and Eastern Market-L’Enfant Plaza routes will cease service at 9 p.m. daily instead of midnight, and the National Mall route will run until 7 pm daily.

These routes will also operate in 20-minute intervals instead of running every 10 minutes. They will cease operations at the end of the year.

The cancellation of the Circulator was previously announced as part of a package of citywide budget cuts in April, but without details on exactly how and when it would stop running. ..............(more)
