• In interviews, records reviews, and field observations of WMATA’s evening and late night/early morning maintenance activities, FTA’s SMI team found that on most nights, WMATA work crews responsible for maintaining critical Metrorail system components, including track, traction power, signal and train control, communications systems, and other structural elements, have between 90 minutes and two hours of actual track time during which to perform work.

• According to interviews with WMATA maintenance personnel, this situation represents a decrease from the track time previously available for work prior to 2012.
