Changes coming to transit systems for July 4

From PRTC: 

In observance of the Independence Day holiday, there will be no PRTC bus service on Monday, July 4. Regular Saturday service will resume on Tuesday, July 5.

For best results, local OmniLink passengers wishing to make a reservation for an off-route trip for Tuesday, July 5 should call Customer Service by 7 p.m., Friday, July 1.

In preparation for the three-day weekend, PRTC will have a few extra PM OmniRide buses available for potential overflow on Friday, July 1. Because PRTC experiences a significant increase in mid-day and early afternoon OmniRide passengers on the day before a three-day weekend, to avoid overcrowding you may want to consider taking Metrorail or other regional bus services and transferring to a Metro Direct bus to complete your commute.

For more information, call our Customer Service office at 703-730-6664 or email [email protected]. Schedule information is posted atwww.PRTCtransit.org.

From VRE: 

In observance of Independence Day, VRE will not operate normal service on Monday, July 4th. Regular service will resume on Tuesday, July 5th.

From Metro: 

Metro will provide frequent rail service during the evening hours of Monday, July 4, to accommodate those attending the fireworks display on the National Mall.

Several hundred thousand passengers are expected to take Metrorail on Independence Day, with crowds primarily traveling to and from the 9:10 p.m. fireworks display on the Mall, as well as other events around the region. Metrorail service will operate from 7 a.m. until midnight, with near rush-hour service levels before and after the fireworks. Off-peak fares will be in effect for the entire service day.
