Metro launches audiocasts on web

Metro is now posting weekly audiocasts on its web site every Friday. The audio-casts can be downloaded so that web users can listen to the audio-casts either right on their computers or on their MP3 devices, such as an ipod or zune. The audio-casts offer a summary of Metro-related news for the week and provide an overview of how planned maintenance work or major events in the region may impact weekend service.

The first audio-cast was posted today and reminds bus riders that the Pentagon Transit Center is closed this weekend due to the anti-war rally and that there is work on the Blue and Green lines that will impact service. It also provides an overview of the type of track work that is taking place.
