DC Streetcar News/Updates   It's Our Birthday!  DC Streetcar Celebrates One Year of Service

In our first year, we have exceeded expectations with a daily ridership average of 2,721 and had several service milestones. Our high opening day ridership was 8,124, and maintains the record for the single busiest service day. The streetcar also proved to be resource for events in DC and along the H/Benning line. The Women’s March on Washington on Saturday, January 21 was the second busiest day for ridership, serving 7,347 passengers. 4,800 passengers rode on the streetcar for the Kingman Island Bluegrass & Folk Festival during the third busiest service day on April 30, 2016. Other highlights from the year include Sunday service launching on September 18, 2016, following a 7-month introductory period to monitor overall performance.

Check out what we helped to accomplish in our first year!

You're Invited! Come Celebrate...

DC Streetcar successfully launched one year ago today *cue confetti* and it has been a good year! Now that we have a full year of service under our belt, we want to meet you and hear your thoughts on streetcar service from the inaugural year. 

Have an unanswered question? A cool suggestion? Join us Saturday, March 4th for our One-Year Anniversary Social where you'll  have a chance to meet some of the team, grab an awesome giveaway and take part in the great happy hour specials Ben's Upstairs offers.
