The Amalgamated Transit Union Local 689 reports that @ddotdc.bsky.social is going to terminate DC Streetcar service by March 2026. Nearly 2,500 people ride the streetcar every day. Buses along the corridor are already at capacity. This is yet another broken promise to transit-dependent residents.

Shocked that the 96 replacements won’t run on weekends or evenings. The 96 was cross-city route that many EOTR residents relied on for weekend and evening service. Ward 7 never got its promised circulator, never got the DC Streetcar, and is now losing weekend cross-city bus service. D2X and C57.

Another broken promise for Ward 7.

Whenever I see a person with their grocery trolley on the streetcar, I think about how great the design is for that kind of errand. I think about people driving less and doing short commutes more. And then I get so angry that this is not a priority.

Was just talking to someone about how we were promised an extension across the river when the streetcar opened, nine years ago. And yet, here we are with a mile of transit that is mocked and underutilized *because it’s not properly connected*
