[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before 2010, students could walk to the nearest bus stop and ride it to WL, which means the longest walk was probably 0.75 mi (someone 0.75 to 1 mi could walk to a closer bus stop rather than to school). After financial crisis and budget impact, APS implemented bus passes and no allowed walkers to hitch a ride. So the 1.5 mi full walkers is a modern invention to save money. [/quote] Students ride free as of last year.[/quote] That’s the ART bus. Which only is useful for military rd and Langston etc. and schedules are less aligned with school day. [/quote] Not WL family but our kid rides a WMATA bus to home from school for free each day. We do morning drop off because sleep! Most of the wmata drivers do not even ask for the teenagers bus pass. https://www.arlingtonva.us/About-Arlington/Newsroom/Articles/2024/Arlington-Students-Can-Now-Get-Free-Metrobus-Rides [/quote]
