Metro's Stance on Price Hikes, Fare Evasion, and the Funding Crisis
from City Cast DC · host City Cast
Metro is voting on their proposed 2025 budget TODAY. To explain it all, we sat down with Randy Clarke, who runs the Metro system. Clarke’s new budget proposal isn’t full of the kinds of draconian cuts that were on the table last year, but he’s still managing a lot of the challenges — and, according to him, a lot of the opportunities — that come with running a mass transit system in a post-covid city.
