Metro News Release

For immediate release: July 17, 2008

Shady Grove West Kiss & Ride Lot closed Saturday, July 19, due to scheduled maintenance

The Shady Grove Metrorail station West Kiss & Ride Lot will be closed on Saturday, July 19, as Metro conducts preparation work to re-surface the lot. This work should minimally impact customers, as the West Kiss & Ride Lot only contains 20 parking spaces and is scheduled to reopen on Sunday.

The Kiss and Ride Lot on the I-270/370 side of the station as well as the other parking garages and surface lots will remain open during the surface parking lot maintenance work. Signs were posted on Monday, July 14, at the parking facility to alert customers of the closure.

Metro apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. For more information on the project, customers may see the station manager, call 202-637-7000 (TTY 202-638-3780) or visit Metro’s Web site at www.metroopensdoors.com.
