NEW BUSES FLEET * USA - Metro Bringing Bigger Buses to Rosslyn-Dulles Route
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority plans to start using longer buses on Route 5A, which connects the L'Enfant Metro station to Dulles Airport
Washington,DC,USA -The Sun Gazette -October 24, 2008: -- The price can't be beat: $3.10 each way, compared to about $50 for a cab... The new, 61-seat buses are known to Metro officials as “articulated” but will be better known to passengers as “accordion-style”... They provide space for about 50 percent more passengers than typical Metrobuses... Metro is purchasing 22 of the buses, which cost just under $800,000 each and run on compressed natural gas rather than diesel fuel... Most of the new buses will be used for high-density runs in Prince George's County and the District of Columbia...
