This report summarizes some of the initial findings of the Washington Metrorail before-and-after study, specifically travel changes over the first four years. System ridership exceeded expectations on the initial downtown segment, and grew continually as the system gradually expanded. There was an eight percent reduction in the number of automobiles entering central Washington on an average weekday. Combined bus and rail ridership entering central Washington increased from 160,000 to 213,000 daily trips, a growth of one-third. The report also includes an analysis of the market for the rail system, including station use patterns, rider characteristics, and travel time and costs.
