I live along the yellow line, I transfer to the blue line for work. It's a nice subway. Does anyone ride the purple line though? It seems entirely pointless.

>the blue line still ends at Franconia-Springfield.
It needs to cross the Occoquan at minimum.

Mass transit systems should be designed where people actually go, not just arbitrary colored lines on a map. The Washington METRO was designed to get from people from the more suburban areas to the inner core of the city where the tourism and governmental offices are.

Honestly, the metro is almost the only good thing about living in DC. It's clean and punctual compared to other metros. We also have a lot of good Salvadorian food, but those places tend to be in the hood so I only get them when I got some guys with me.

Purple line is stupid yeah. Even people in the centers should just be given bus routes or trolleys or bike lanes/parking to the train.

Does the purple line even exist? I mean, I haven't rode on the metro in awhile, but I think this map is fake. I don't think the pink line exists either. And the yellow line terminates at Huntington. There are no metro stops at West Potomac or Mount Vernon or Fort Belvoir. And it would be impossible to even set those up without uprooting a ton of people's residential neighborhoods. I literally went to high school at West Potomac and its in the middle of a residential neighborhood. There's nowhere to put a metro station there without tearing down a bunch of peoples homes. I feel like this map was made by some retarded civil engineering transplant.

wmata destroys tkmty in system/station design it's not close. toei chika is even worse. like wtf is iidabashi. how can almost every major transfer point be so awful on a (mostly) masterplanned system. the marunouchi ginza akasaka mitsuke transfer being fantastic of course. most of toei's own transfers are outside the fare gates or even outside the station!! a real no latch inhibitor. why is shinjuku sanchome designed such that the transfer corridor is so low capacity it has to be closed during rush and you are forced to go upstairs and exit gates instead?? its like after the second line was built, every line was treated as just an extension of whatever private railway it links up to with no thought to how it interacts with the rest of the so called "network"
