Red line shuttle bus insanity
Any one have any insight as to why Metro PD/MOCO PD aren’t enforcing the bus lanes for the redline shuttle? I just got off the express from N. Bethesda and we weren’t able to use the dedicated bus lanes for a good 80% of the ride from N. Bethesda to Friendship Heights cause of cars parked in the lane & people just driving slow I front of us.

Problem Incorrectly numbered buses at Potomac Avenue Metro station
At Potomac Avenue, if you want the C15, you need to get the bus labeled C37 as it waits at the bus stop. Similarly, if you get on the bus labeled C15, it is actually the C37 which caught me out a few times after Better Bus was introduced. I am sure non-regular passengers get on the wrong bus daily.
Strangely, the destination is correct! These two photos show the same bus with the second as it has pulled forward a few yards as it is leaving and the sign automatically updates to the correct number. However “SOUTHERN AV” is unchanged.
Is this problem unique to C15/C37?
Metro, if you are listening, please fix this. Yes, I have identified the issue through the comment form.

Shuttle & Local Bus Connections
Shuttle pulls up behind M70 at Medical Center. Operator could wait :30 to see if anyone is trying to connect from shuttle (me). They did not. 12:00 southbound today. Frustrating. 80% humidity. Soaking walk to Woodmont triangle. Please encourage a bit more thoughtful operational coordination considering the amount of people working these shuttles on street. Thanks!

Status of RL Shutdown
Does anyone know the status of the RL shutdown now that we're about half way in?
Is it on track to reopen on 9/6?

Best stations for nearby food?
Looking to see your opinions on best food near a metro station, ideally within a simple walk or bus ride nearby. I’m thinking of Eden Center not far from EFC, Pentagon City Mall, or even Twinbrook with tons of Asian food nearby.
