For immediate release: July 17, 2008

Temporary sales booth available at Anacostia station

A temporary sales booth will open at the Anacostia Metrorail station on Saturday, July 19, where customers will be able to buy Metro farecards and passes, including weekly Metrobus passes and SmarTrip cards. The sales office will be open on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and on Mondays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The sales booth at Anacostia replaces the sales outlet at the former Southeastern Metrobus Division, which closed in March. Like the former sales outlet at the Southeastern bus garage, the temporary booth will not be a full service location. A permanent structure is scheduled to open by the end of the year.
