I agree with most of what you say, but the current parameters reflect WMATA's assessment of what they can sustain over the course of an entire rush hour. Assuming they're right, and they know more about their operations than you or I do, any capacity increases would only be theoretical and actual throughput would not be increased even if they scheduled on tighter headways.Your point about performance metrics is well taken, but I'm not sure it's the root of the problem here. Your point about car availability is also on point. |
