ORANGE LINE VS. BLUE LINE

Increase the service of the Blue Line train.

Why is this important?

During this past Summer, Metro implemented a 'new rush' schedule which eliminated most of the Blue Line service and increased the Orange Line service. The public needs more Blue Line service in order to reach such destinations as Foggy Bottom/GW University/GW Hospital, Farragut West, Arlington Cemetery, Ronald Reagan Airport, The Pentagon and Pengaton City Mall all of which are on the Blue Line, some are popular tourist attractions. We need this service returned.
