Public transit leaders from across the nation came together in Washington, D.C. today for the National Transit Safety and Security Summit. CEOs and police chiefs from 15 of the largest U.S. transit agencies met to exchange proven strategies for enhancing safety, protecting frontline workers, and improving the customer experience, all while advocating for the continued federal support and funding necessary to keep our systems secure and reliable. Thank you to @FTA_DOT and @USDOT @SecDuffy for meeting with and listening to transit leaders share the most pressing issues they are currently facing. @wmatagm and leaders from @metrolosangeles, @MTA, @GCRTA, and @APTA_info also spoke to media at an afternoon press conference to underscore the importance of advocacy and partnership. Public transportation continues to be one of the safest ways to travel in the U.S. By working together, we are committed to advancing the technologies, operations, and policies that ensure transit remains a safe, dependable choice for everyone.

You can't trust everyone ... but you can trust us when we say a basic lock should NOT be your bike's first line of defense! 🚲❌ Light chain or cable locks might be cheaper and more convenient to carry, but they can still be easily cut by determined thieves. For maximum security, here's what to do instead! ⤵️ ✔️Use a U-lock to secure your bike's frame ✔️Loop a secondary chain or cable through the wheels ✔️Register your bike with us for free to help us recover it if it's ever lost or stolen @wmata also has bike lockers that you can rent for just 5 cents an hour or up to $1 a day!
