NYC liberals making the divide between haves and have-nots even greater.

I’m okay with it

Thanks for the video. I was always a bit perplexed with how the circulator worked compared to WMATA, so didn’t really ride it that much. If it’s running every 10 minutes wouldn’t that add on to traffic on the roadways? With regard to MTA bus routes in Baltimore, bus routes aren’t always the best option since getting from Inner Harbor to Baltimore Penn involves getting through grid lock intersections which result in a 20-30 commute during rush hour.

So Sad And I Been Washington DC So Many Times I Been On DC Circulator Couple Times Sad

I love it

I hate it

Would you expect anything else from the capital of the worst country on earth? Nope. The US hates transit, and now that that walking pile of diapers is back in power, it'll only get worse.

Nice video

And the snozberries taste like snozberries!

Line 2 is great. No white drug addicts, no south Seattle thugs, just nice Hindu families and lower workers… 😊😊😊 hopefully this is the future

I had used this nice service and it is sad to see it go

DC circular operators jobs are saved by moving over to WMATA from what I heard

I loved it for getting across the bridge, but now I just gotta use the 92 and ride the Tram from H street to Union station. Not a bad route, but still better with circulator before. It will be missed!

Its rough if you are a Bus Operator for them cause you have to start all over again. Imagine putting in 10 to 20 years, just to start all over again probably at WMATA or The Bus.

So frustrating and so poorly handled. I know WMATA is trying to pick up some of the slack, but if what they've done on the 33 & 38 are any indication, it won't be enough. My wife used to rely on that circulator to get her to Georgetown. Thankfully, we moved just after they shut it down, and now it's not an issue for her. But it was always crowded, so I know it's an issue for some. Nothing circling the Mall at all is crazy. They'd stretched the Circulator way, way, way beyond its original purpose, and of course never supported it with things like dedicated bus lanes (I mean, they have them; they just refuse to enforce people not parking in them), so it was pretty much always off schedule, and depending on the line, waiting 20 or 30 minutes, when it was supposed to run every 10, was not uncommon. Not to mention, the fare readers were broken probably 40% of the time. Instead of fixing some glaring issues, they just trashed the whole thing. Inexcusable. But with DC's current leadership, not surprising. They seem to be a bunch of suburbanites who've never been out of their car, and have no idea what being a working person in this city is like. If I had any money, I'd offer to pay someone $1000. to find me a picture of Bowser inside a Metro car. Hell, past the fare gates at a station. I doubt she's ever actually used it in her whole life. Pretty sure the only time she's even been to a station is for pressers, so she can get her face on TV, which seems to be her only actual job, or at least, the only thing she puts work into. The delays on the street car are infuriating. It's the usual thing, building half of it and then wondering why it doesn't get the ridership it was projected to have when fully built (something that's finally improving with cycling, now that many of the islands of cycling infrastructure are starting to be woven into an actually useful network). Now that I live in the city, and use the bus to get around a lot, I'd fight a nun to get more street car service out in the areas of town that don't have a Metro station. The North-South routes 70 & 79 have some of the best frequency I've experienced outside of NYC, and they're always full. That tells me they need more capacity, and there's plenty of room to put in a street car.

Somehow I got a very bad feeling that the end of the DC Circulator is a bad sign and omen of what the trumpublicans are going to do to _all_ bus and rail transit in this country plus Amtrak.

Very sad to see the dc circulator service ended

Don't pay you fare 😮 soon you won't have service 😮

Why do we have to see a montage of every other bus? Or even video of you on a bus that is now gone? You should have just concentrated on what the alternatives to the former routes are now. This video could have been half the length.

The mismanagement of transit in DC is just atrocious sometimes 😣.

The title of the video is deceptive. It appears to show that DC has lost WMATA, the authority that runs the Metro subway, Metro buses, when only the DC Circulator is ending. MASSIVE FAIL and CLICKBAIT. Lived in the DC area for a couple of years and hadn't even heard of the Circulator.

Great challenge! The bus definitely feels more comfortable. Did you get to explore Forest Hills? I remember I really enjoyed walking around there and appreciating the beautiful homes.

Wow....... I was in Washington DC three weeks ago, it was my third time, I had no idea that when I did see them it would be the last time seeing them in operations, and I'm so glad that I took some pictures on that DC Curulator.

You should do Baltimore

Its extra sad because the routes for the circulator do one thing right: they connect people from where they are to where they're going. For whatever reason a lot of the other DC routes just don't connect the places people are actually trying to get to without a transfer.

So what’s happening to the fleet of buses?

It was a great service when I used it. But the issue I always had especially with the Virginia route I waited over a hour for one to show up. That seemed to be its biggest issue for me personally

Honestly, I'm pissed to see this service discontinued. There just never was a clear and consistent vision of what it should be, and I think that mismanagement lead to its downfall. I always liked how this system kind of bucked the trend of a traditional bus service, with colorful interiors, unusual buses, a base frequency of every 10 minutes, and easy to understand routes. I never did get to ride the National Mall service though. I'm glad WMATA added some service to help accommodate displaced riders, and thanks for including them in this video! I'll miss the circulator as it was one of my favorite DMV systems to ride!

Honestly, it was only a matter of time. Ridership was on the decline for years

I have came to the conclusion that this country’s politicians are on crack……

Another awesome video! I'm so happy I found your channel! :)

Great video! It is very sad news, indeed. I've also made a video about it. Washington DC bus system needs a lot of improvements. Thank you for letting us experience DC circulator one last time!

Thank You!

wow thats sad to see... greetings from Germany

Such a sad day for the people of DC and the ones who use it daily to commute to the office from Union Station. Can't believe Baltimore City is doing more on the free/reduced circulator bus front than DC. It genuinely shocks me. I loved the alternatives you give after each route. Thanks for this!

This is crazy. It is needed epically for DC but DC knows what it needs I guess. I have never been on it but I do support it. In Baltimore, they have the circulator service and just announced that they will be expanding service for two new service lines. What DC looses, Baltimore will gain. Cheers!

I really like the aesthetic of this plane's cabin

So much more comfortable than the subway…..

That is pretty cool. Shame the LIRR doesn't have a train like this.

.

Buses are best since it doesn’t shut down & trap you inside when a whole regional blackout occurs.

Idk why, but this train reminds me of the inside of an IKEA.

Great vid! I had been wondering about the bus redesign and I didn't see any content about it since it launched. Was difficult to find anything, even written content. The only thing I could find was boring plain local news articles. So this was nice to see!

You could have saved fare. If you pay your fare with coins or mta MetroCard, nice gomobile, ask for mta paper transfer for Suffolk County Transit bus.

Nosy.

good ol 550 can't count how many times taken that bus living in Bellevue, I did on opening day too starting from south Bellevue. Havent used it since though has limited usefulness till goes over 90

Its awesome to see such incredible enthusiasm for public transportation !

It’s the 1 Line and the 2 Line not Line 1 and Line 2

spotted me and my girlfriend on the bus haha

Nice video!
