Overview
West Hyattsville Metro Station bolsters public transport for those living in the immediate area. This small city in Maryland is close to Washington D.C., but because of its constant traffic congestion, the station offers an affordable, convenient opportunity for a swift commute for many citizens of Hyattsville. The station is on the green line, a line that reaches into downtown D.C. - touching the National Mall, a multitude of high-employment centers, and many other desired points on the map of a traveler or a townie. The station hosts 50 spaces for bikes via racks, and 36 lockers for bikes as well. West Hyattsville Metro is also a station that partners with Enterprise CarShare: a service that allows temporary rental of cars. The area surrounding the station also allows for parking by those who drive to the station. Daily and monthly fees are available. All of these services provide amenities for those who wish to use public transportation to commute to work instead of using private transportation, which contributes to a mass of carbon emissions into our atmosphere.
