Top Ten Metrorail Ridership Days of 2011
Did you take metro on any of these busy days?
June was a busy month for metro in 2011. Seven out of the 10 high ridership days were in June.
According to metro officials June is often a high ridership month because of the overlap of the start of tourist season and Congress still being in session. Another big driver behind high metro usage is Nationals baseball home games.
