D30 Bus Stop Reopens at North Capitol Street

Riders on Washington's D30 bus route will regain access to a North Capitol Street NE stop that's been closed during construction. The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority will reopen the northbound stop at Florida Avenue on Tuesday, May 5, transit officials said. The stop toward Fort Totten returns to service following completion of a District Department of Transportation construction project.

Construction Project Closes Stop Temporarily

The bus stop at North Capitol Street NE and Florida Avenue had been temporarily closed to accommodate DDOT's construction work in the area. Transit agencies routinely coordinate with municipal departments to suspend service at specific stops when roadwork, utility projects, or infrastructure improvements require temporary closures. The stop, identified as number 1001481 in WMATA's system, serves the D30 route connecting neighborhoods in Northeast Washington. Officials didn't specify how long the stop had been closed or details about the construction project that necessitated the closure.

Service Returns to Normal Operations

The May 5 reopening restores normal service patterns for D30 riders traveling northbound toward Fort Totten. Transit officials said the change represents a return to regular operations at the location. WMATA issued an advisory effective from May 5 through July 5, 2026, though officials didn't explain why the advisory period extends two months beyond the reopening date. The agency didn't provide information about whether any service adjustments or schedule changes will accompany the stop's return to service.

Reopening Takes Effect Tuesday

The northbound bus stop will be re-established on Tuesday, May 5, 2026, WMATA confirmed. Officials said riders using the D30 route should take note of the service restoration. The agency didn't indicate whether any signage updates or physical improvements were made to the stop during the closure period. WMATA encourages passengers to sign up for MetroAlerts for ongoing service information.
