D.C. Streetcar

The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) in Washington, D.C., has started Pre-Revenue Operations (PRO) for the DC Streetcar as DDOT prepares the system for safety certification to carry passengers.

 

PRO, which simulates service along the corridor without passengers, began December 16 along H Street NE and Benning Road NE.

The full complement of streetcars will operate simulating normal service from early morning to late night. The PRO will run for at least three weeks and will be extended as needed.

DC Streetcar will facilitate travel for District residents, workers and visitors by complementing existing transit options and by creating neighborhood connections where they currently do not exist.
