Late running commuter buses to DC?

[penguin6]

I've been looking over the MTA commuter bus schedules from C. Beach and P. Frederick, and I'm kind of surprised that the last buses leave around 7, 7:30 in the morning, and the latest bus out at night is 5:50 or so. While that is great for 9-5 or 8-4, it doesn't really help those with later hours.

Has MTA ever run a later bus, say 6:30 or 7:00 PM, or one leaving around 8:00 for those who want to sleep in just a bit?

I asked MTA and got a generic "we are always looking to improve" reply.

No. The hours are more for Fed Workers. Visit www.wmata.gov.

This is the best you're gonna get.

Doesn't help you guys much in Calvert County, but ridership is considerably higher in Charles, and they won't dump a bunch of money into a service that's not going to support itself.

Great info, thanks for posting

wish it would work for me but it would cost the same to ride the bus as it does for me to drive. If I take the bus I would then need metro to get closer to my office

The Keller 902 bus (schedule at same site) runs from Calvert Co. and does stop at a Metro station in D.C. (L'Enfant?), but the times probably aren't much different from its other routes.
