Among the many bus agencies in the Washington region, obviously WMATA’s Metrobus is the biggest by any measure. But the second biggest, Montgomery County Ride On, is such a large agency on its own that it ranks alongside many a big-city operation from elsewhere in the country. If you rank US bus agencies by 2019 ridership, New York’s MTA, Los Angeles County’s MTA, and Chicago’s CTA came in 1-2-3. WMATA was 9th. Baltimore’s MTA 11th.
