South Four Mile Run Drive Complete Street Project:
The South Four Mile Run Drive Project is advancing to begin work on the north side of the intersection with Shirlington Rd. Work will begin the week of October 28 and will last for 4-6 weeks. The west bound bus stop will be closed. Customers can board ART service (Route 75) at the next nearest bus stop.
How to Ride for Senior Citizens
Senior Discount
Citizens age 65 and older can ride the ART bus for half price ($1.00).
The yellow Senior SmarTrip card enables seniors (65+) to get discounted fare on ART, Metrobus and Metrorail. It works just like a regular SmarTrip card and fare is automatically deducted when the card is tapped on the fare box. The card is free. To get the card, seniors need to show a valid government issued photo ID with proof of age at either the Metro sales office at Metro Center station (enter at 12th & F Streets) or any Commuter Store.
