The head of the Washington, D.C., Metro subway system announced major repairs to the problem-plagued system on Friday.

The Washington, D.C., Metro has become a symbol of dysfunction as the subway system stumbles from crisis to crisis. But the leaders of the system are developing a plan to get the Metro back on track.

The Washington, D.C., metro system announced an emergency shutdown of its rail system starting at midnight Tuesday. The system will be closed for at least 29 hours for safety checks.

You won't be riding D.C.'s streetcar on the first day of 2015.

The final round of safety documentation has begun, and there's a chance — a chance — that the system's opening could squeak in under the 2014 wire.

The District, which is marking a record year for bike lane construction, now has a total of 69 lanes.

Businesses and residents along H Street are becoming impatient, as parking spots disappear while the streetcars continue safety runs — without passengers.

Metro says it needs more money from its jurisdictions in D.C., Maryland and Virginia or it may have to cut rail service, even during rush hour.

Only 20 of D.C.'s 7,000 cabs are wheelchair-accessible. And that number won't be increasing in 2014.

It's unclear precisely when streetcars will begin running along H Street NE in D.C., but sources say that issues with paperwork may be pushing back the start date.

A legislative effort to help pedestrians and bicyclists injured in D.C. traffic crashes seek compensation for their injuries has been postponed.

The Republican businessman who won Tuesday's Maryland gubernatorial election might not squash the transit project as many assume.

Residents of one D.C neighborhood finally got a speed camera installed at a busy intersection, but they say the process is too difficult and time-consuming — and won't fix the problem.

Uber is not going anywhere. That was the message from the D.C. Council, which voted 12-1 to legalize and regulate ridesharing apps like UberX, Lyft and Sidecar.

The number of bicyclists killed in crashes with cars is on the rise, according to a new report, reversing a downward trend going back three decades. But is it actually more dangerous?

D.C. officials said a conflict with the D.C. Council over funding would likely cut the planned 22-mile system by more than half.

The D.C. Taxicab Commission is floating a proposal that would require the city's 7,000 taxicabs to do what has made Uber so popular: use an app that allows riders to e-hail them.

More travelers are opting for Reagan National Airport over Dulles Airport, and local officials say that Congress is partly to blame.

Hundreds of D.C. taxicabs took part in a massive demonstration against Uber, protesting what they say is unfair competition from rideshare apps.

A bill before the D.C. City Council would legalize the app-based, on-demand transportation options, after months of conflict between the companies and regulators.
