Mayor Muriel Bowser announced a third month of significant increases in DC Circulator ridership. In April 2019, nearly 150,000 more passengers rode the DC Circulator, a 37% increase in ridership compared to the same period in 2018. While the Mayor has proposed to #KeepCirculatorFree in her FY2020 budget proposal, the Council has ignored the supportive response from residents and has proposed to eliminate free DC Circulator for residents.
