via WMATA GM, Randy Clarke’s 2023 report
Major news revealed last night after a joke tweet:
Love the 🚌. I actually probably take Circulator almost as much as Metro Bus based on destinations. Also got some Dash etc trips in 2023. And sadly we need to get all our bus fare boxes replaced so all taps show up for everyone. I’m out across the entire system.

And for the curious like Professor Van Horn:
I walked 2,409 miles in 2023 David.

From WMATA:
“For the first time, Metro customers can get a personalized report of their Metro ridership for an entire year.
The new website, called Your 2023 Metro report, gives riders detailed information about their use of public transit last year including:
Number of bus and rail trips
Number of stations visited
Miles they traveled on transit
Most used bus route
How much carbon dioxide emissions they saved by taking transit instead of driving or ride-hailing.
How they rank against other Metro riders”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
