Description: Metro Station Entrances -for DC only. This dataset contains points representing Metro facilities, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies. Station centroids were identified from visual observation of orthophotography and extracted from the planimetric data and a centroid for each entrance was heads-up digitized from the snapbase.

Description: This point layer was created from the GTFS data feeds from the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority (WMATA) to represent the new WMATA bus transit stops for the Better Bus Network Redesign(BBNR). Points in this layer represent individual bus stops; they were generalized from the GTFS format where stops depicted individual services. On June 29, 2025, WMATA implemented a brand new Metrobus Network – known as Better Bus. Each point in this layer represents a bus stop served by the routes, with the stop sequence field indicating the order of stops based on the route's travel direction. This feature class was generated using a relational query on the trip_id, shape_id fields from the trip.txt and stop_times.txt files from the GTFS. The unique identifier for each stop is designated by the REG_ID (Regional ID), a field created by WMATA to assign a recognizable number to each stop, ensuring that every stop has a distinct ID. Learn more about GTFS feeds at wmata.com/about/developers.The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) has added DC attribution for Roadway Blocks and Roadway Subblocks. Use BLOCKKEY, SUBBLOCKKEY, and ROUTEID to relate back to DC government data. Learn more about DDOT's roadway centerline data at opendata.dc.gov/pages/roadway-centerlines.

Description: This line layer was created from the GTFS data feeds from the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority (WMATA) to represent the new WMATA bus transit routes for the Better Bus Network Redesign(BBNR). Lines in this layer represent individual bus routes; they were generalized from the GTFS format where lines depicted individual services. On June 29, 2025, WMATA implemented a brand new Metrobus Network – known as Better Bus. Read more about this update from BBNR info page. Each line represents the route that a specific bus follows during its daily service. The unique field, shape_id, is derived from the GTFS to identify the route, while route_id (route_shortname), direction, and variation fields use familiar letter or number designations for buses, with distinct IDs for each route. This layer was developed as part of the WMATA Better Bus Network Redesign and will be updated as necessary to reflect changes in the transit system.

Description: This dataset represents Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority's (WMATA) Metrobus Priority Corridor Network (PCN). This dataset supports a strategy for improving bus service in the Washington region quickly and efficiently. The goal of the PCN is to improve bus service travel times, reliability, capacity, productivity and system access. The plan includes 24 corridors across the region and will impact half of all bus riders in the current Metrobus system. All WMATA GIS data is stored and exported in WMATA LDP NAD 1983 [NSRS2007] US Feet.

Description: Centerlines of railroads or Metrorail are captured. The line is at the midpoint between each rail line. Hidden features due to tunnels, overpasses, or bridges are interpolated for connectivity. These areas are attributed as hidden railroad features. Railroad Centerline: Delineated centerline between all dual-rails, including marshaling yards. Metro Railroad Centerline: Delineated centerline between all Metrorail dual-rails, including marshaling yards. Streetcar Railroad Centerline: Delineated centerline between all streetcar dual-rails, including marshaling yards. Hidden Railroad: Captures the centerline of railroads that are obscured by overpasses or tunnels. The location of these features is inferred.

Description: For the purposes of the map, a Truck is defined as a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 26,000 pounds with a carrying capacity of more than 1 and ¼ ton. For the purposes of the map, a Bus is defined as a vehicle with a carrying capacity of greater than 15 passengers. This does not include WMATA or Circulator buses. A through route, or primary route, signifies a roadway that may be used by trucks and buses that have neither an origin or destination within the city or on the route. A non-through route (all other roadways not highlighted in blue), signifies a roadway that that may be used by trucks or buses only for the purpose of making a delivery or pickup of passengers or freight. Trucks and buses should only use a non-through route at the beginning or end of a trip, when traveling between their origin/destination and a through route.

A route designated as “no through-trucks over two axles” signifies a roadway where no person shall operate a truck over two axles except for the purpose of arriving at his or her destination by the most direct route from the primary, or through, truck route at the intersection that is nearest to the destination. A route designated as “local deliveries allowed” signifies a roadway where trucks whether trucks are permitted on the roadway for local deliveries, otherwise no trucks are permitted on those roadways for any reason.
