A network of bus routes that better connect the region — Current Metrobus routes would be replaced with 123 new routes that improve service and connect people to jobs, destinations, and other transit services across the region. Additionally, in Prince George's County, TheBus routes will be replaced with 23 routes to complement service in the County.

Improved service, especially during evenings and on weekends — In the proposed 2025 Network, more than 146,000 customers will gain access to high-frequency evening service 7 days a week. Going somewhere this weekend? Thousands more residents will have bus service on Saturdays and Sundays in the proposed 2025 Network compared to today—22,000 more on Saturdays and 46,000 more on Sundays.  

New route names — Customers have told us that our bus route numbers can be confusing—and we agree! The proposed 2025 Network includes a new naming system that will help customers know where a bus operates—making it easier for regular customers, new customers, and visitors to use our regional bus system. Learn more in the Map Library. 

More efficient bus stop spacing — In order to make service faster and more direct, we are removing some bus stops that are currently causing slower speeds and increased wait times because they are too close together. We also would remove some stops that, today, serve lower numbers of customers or do not offer safe pedestrian access.
