I thought they used the DC Metro.
Mass Transit. Isn’t that what they want all of us to use, out here in the hinterland?
BINGO. My brother is a construction supervisor for a large university and they design new buildings with zero parking spaces to force people to use mass transit. This is done to save the planet and such.
Years ago I had to get fingerprinted for a government contract I was working on.
I went to a USDA site in Maryland just outside of DC. No metro station nearby, but that’s OK, they had acres of parking...
..for Federal employees.
Visitors got to choose from one of 5 parking spots with a 15-minute limit.
(I no longer work on any Federal contracts, and I probably never will again).
I use to work in a Federal Office building. The parking garage was for executives, individuals who were assigned a night shift, and car pools. The rest of us took mass transit or parked somewhere else.
I managed parking spots for a Pentagon agency in 2010-2013 as one of my seven odd jobs. Of the 350-odd people...almost half were Metro-riders. At least in that era, there was no confusion, and no bickering about Metro (not sure about today).
