Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Proposed <strong>FY2017</strong> Budget Chapter 3 Operating Budget by Mode: Metrorail Sources of Funds In the <strong>FY2017</strong> Proposed Budget, as with Metrobus, Metrorail revenues include both system revenue (primarily passenger fares and parking fees, as well as advertising and lease revenues) and subsidy from Metro’s jurisdictional partners. Passenger revenues, including fares and passes, are projected at $702.9 million. This represents a decrease of $45.2 million from the FY2016 budget. The decrease in fare and passenger revenues is tied to a projected ridership reduction of 8.4 million passenger trips. Parking revenue at Metrorail garages will contribute $46.1 million in revenue. This amount is $2.9 million lower than the FY2016 budget due to declining ridership. Advertising revenue attributed to Metrorail is projected to generate $7.8 million in <strong>FY2017</strong>. This amount is $1.0 million higher than the FY2016 budget. Other Revenue, which includes Joint Development, Fiber Optics, and other miscellaneous revenue sources, is projected to contribute $34.4 million in <strong>FY2017</strong>. This is a decrease of $22.0 million from FY2016 primarily due to the one-time usage of Transit Infrastructure Investment Fund (TIIF). III-15
