☃️ recovery has been far from easy, but @dashbusva.bsky.social DASH is fully operational thanks to our dedicated team members & @alexandriavagov.bsky.social crew who worked and never stopped. Ice/snow at stops are barriers, but our friends at @wmata.com have stepped up to help us dig out!!💪🚍💕🚍🦸‍♂️

For the first time in years, we have made the difficult decision to cancel all service for Monday, January 26 due to extreme icy conditions. With safety as our top priority, we determined that operating service would put our riders, staff, and community at unnecessary risk. @nbcwashington.com

Okay... we feel like we say this every week but *a lot* of stuff happened. Let's break it down, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social on why the DOGE takeover is worse than you think... (sorry, but you gotta read this one.)

The DOGE Takeover Is Worse Than You Think
What’s happening to the US government right now is bad. What comes next is worse.

Today is Rosa Parks’ Birthday and Transit Equity Day. @dashbusva.bsky.social honors her legacy as the first lady of civil rights, we have come far yet we still have so far to go. Come ride FREE DASH and catch this bus in service throughout Alexandria all month long.

I’m bad at taking action photos, and even worse at posting updates but I’m so proud of the @dashbusva.bsky.social team for todays work. We ran service despite the challenges (yes, I helped free a stuck bus and no they wouldn’t let me drive 😆) Hop on for a ride home after you finish sledding! ❄️🚍☃️
