DC Transit: WMATA Metro Times provides real-time arrival information for DC Metro, bus, and streetcar services for people traveling around the Washington, DC area. Its transit tools bring arrival data, trip planning, alerts, and map information together in one app.

Plan journeys across regional transit services

The Trip Planner supports travel around Washington, DC and Baltimore using multiple documented transit options. These include WMATA, DC Circulator, Arlington Transit, and other available services. This gives users a way to organize a journey that may involve more than one local transportation provider.

Check arrivals and set a bus alarm

Real-time arrival times show when the next DC Metro train, bus, or streetcar is expected to arrive. A bus alarm can notify users before departure, helping them monitor a selected bus trip without relying only on the displayed schedule.

Follow vehicles and nearby stops on the map

The map displays real-time locations for buses and streetcars. Location-based stop discovery can also help users find nearby transit stops, while the map provides a visual way to review vehicle positions in relation to the surrounding area.

Review alerts and local conditions

Metro Service Alerts are available in the app so users can check for reported disruptions affecting service. A weather forecast feature provides information about current weather conditions, adding local context for travel planning.
