Hunter Mill District Supervisor Cathy Hudgins and newly-appointed WMATA Riders’ Advisory Council member John Nelson both urge that the public stay informed and involved. Hudgins is an acknowledged expert on regional transportation matters, serving as a Commissioner with NVTC and a Board Member of WMATA. Nelson is looking forward to learning, being a voice for the community, and encouraging the public “to take ownership of the Metro system. It’s our system and we should do what we can to support and improve it.”
