Today, Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) General Manager and Chief Executive Officer Richard Sarles will mark the completion of escalator rehabilitation work at Union Station and escalator replacement work at the Foggy Bottom Metro Rail Station.

The three new and seven refurbished escalators at WMATA’s busiest stations are the first major milestones in the agency’s $150 million project aimed at improving escalator operations, WMATA officials said in a prepared statement.
