<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Last June, Metrorail service hours were temporarily adjusted to a midnight closing, seven days a week as part of the implementation of SafeTrack, Metro’s accelerated track repair
program. While SafeTrack was designed to rehabilitate the Metrorail system and accomplish three years of work in approximately one year, recommendations from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), third-party experts and peer reviews concluded that properly
maintaining the system long term requires more maintenance time on the tracks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Prior to SafeTrack, the Metrorail system was closed only 33 hours each week, providing little time for maintenance and inspections. By contrast, in 1998 when the Metrorail system
was roughly 20 percent smaller, had 12 fewer stations and was under less stress (i.e. by running shorter trains less frequently), the system enjoyed 25 percent more maintenance time – 44 hours per week.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Adjusting Metrorail operating hours and increasing track access will enable Metro crews to properly maintain the rehabilitated tracks and signals, mitigate water intrusion and
complete other safety-critical maintenance and inspections beyond the completion of SafeTrack. The change will also reduce the risk of disruptive shutdowns for extensive repairs.
