Mastercard has participated in Champions for three years now, and from the beginning of its participation in the program, it was clear that they were committed to enriching the commuting experience of their employees. After wrapping up their first year of Champions at the gold level, Mastercard has only become more and more invested in finding employee commute solutions as they have increased their days-in-office requirements. That is why ATP congratulates Mastercard’s efforts on surpassing their previous achievement within the program by attaining the highest level of recognition in Champions, platinum, as well as becoming ATP's Champion of the Month!
Mastercard has collaborated with ATP on several events and initiatives with the goal of identifying its employees’ commuting needs and providing transportation solutions. Throughout Mastercard's three years in the Champions program, it has truly shown how to stand out as an employer.

Metro riders who travel through Crystal City should plan ahead for February. Beginning the weekend of February 14, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) will be implementing adjustments to regular Metrorail service to support the construction of a second entrance at the Crystal City metro station. The new entrance is expected to improve station accessibility, improve ease of transfers, and reduce the amount of passenger traffic throughout the station. You can view Metro’s plans for the entrance, in collaboration with Arlington County, in this video.
While this project is expected to continue through the spring of 2027, Metrorail service is projected to only be impacted during certain weekends between mid-February and June of this year.
