9:08 am
how we have a news 4 exclusive. safety and maintenance issues with the d.c. metro system have hit such a crisis mode that even the president of the united states was commenting about the issues this past week. and the man who may have the least enviable job in the entire region, the map in charge n in metro joining us live, paul wiedefeld. thank you very much for coming into the studio. >> good morning. >> first of all, i want to start right off with the latest piece of news, 9 federal transit administration just yesterday came down hard on metro about last thursday's track fire and explosion at the federal central southwest station. we'll show the video in case anyone hasn't seen what happened there. and for those would don't know, the fta is now overseeing all of metro's safety operations. after this fire and explosion happened thursday morning, metro reportedly inspected the
9:09 am
and started running trains again. and kookd according to the fta inspection wasn't thorough enough and they were denied access. it became clear that the issue was a much larger issue and it wasn't until rate later in the day when a second track issue surfaced that metro decided to shut the station down. the fta said trains tipped to operate across this potentially dangerous track without interruption. is this report accurate? >> let me just first and foremost say that the fta and metro, we're on the same page. trying to get this as safe as we can as quickly as we can. so we both have the same goal. that is still under investigation, so i don't quant to get into the back and forth. i think we have to take a look at exactly what happened so we can correct twhawhat happened. so we have to nail
9:10 am
commes facts before we comment. >> the explosion happened at 7:00 and it wasn't until the afternoon that metro shut the station down p when did you personally see the video? >> when i saw that video was roughly around 4:00 p.m. and basically i immediately said shuts down the station, let's figure out what is going on. and with luck that i've been having, within minutes we had a report of smoke in that same station pe at the other end of the platform. ended up that was debris situation, totally unrelated for anything with the inside later. i went down there that are evening and saw both situations. but it speaks to the larger issue, it talks to the safety culture, procedures and policy, it talks to the people. all those things. which we have been trying to
9:11 am
and say that that was a safe situation. >> no, that's what i'm saying. >> then why if that happened in the morning did so many hours and people were allowed become in that station and to be frank but, i personally saw a picture of that incident in the morning. so why did it take until 4:00 in the afternoon for you to see it? >> because it was being handled as an arcing insulator. and so what i'm getting is it's an,ing insulator. >> so it was a misdiagnosis? >> i think it gets back to the culture of agency. so when you see something like that somewhere in the agency, people aren't reacting a certain way. so it gets to the larger issue that we're trying to deal with. and just so you know, this tuesday i'm having every top manager over 650 of them are heating with me this tuesday. first time it's been done in the history of the agency. and ag,
9:12 am
those core issues of how we manage this system. just another way that i have to do that. >> you're talking a lot about maintaining the system right now, but you can main taken the system all you want. if you have a culture of employees who aren't doing what they're supposed to do, this past week we saw the ntsb come down hard on you guys. now the fta with the report. riders are frustrated and in some cases they don't feel safe. there are people who say that they don't feel safe riding metro. can you say with 100% certainty that that issue that p happened last week won't happen again? >> ntsb, it's been going on for decades. one of their big messages is that it hasn't been dealt with and again that's where we have to get our arms away this whole thing and do it. in terms of safety, yes, it is safe.away this whole thing and do it. in terms of safety, yes, it is safe. if i find thinking that isn't
9:13 am
respect i wisafe, i will shut i down which is exactly what i did. >> so you're saying should you have done something sooner on thursday? >> to find out exactly what was can going on with that. >> on when we get to this issue of people following the correct procedures, are you going to have to fire people? are therepeople who are going to have to lose their job now at metro because you're talking about changing the culture and the way to do that is to cut out the rot. and you're the guy who will have to cut out the rot. will you have to fire people? >> no. i may have, to but you have to get the organization again to perform the way it shoob perful performing. it means training, beginning them the right procedures, exercising the procedures. it means all of that. then, yes, about if anyone does something that obviously is so out of line with that yes, of course they have to go. or they cannot meet the management requirements, then -- >>
9:14 am
back to your rail operation control center. do you see large scale changes happening there, changes going on there? >> again, i think i have to look at it's across board. the rock is one example, but i think it's all cross the board. >> we're talking with paul wiedefeld. we'll check in with your forecast and then we'll continue with paul we'd field.
9:17 am
we're pack for part two of our exclusive interview with paul wiedefeld. of course it's been a busy week aside from all the safety concern, you rolled out what is without a doubt the most am pish issues and far reaching maintenance plan in metro's history. so a scale of one to ten, ten being the most it is rupts difference, where would you put it? >> probably around a seven. >> and this is something that will start in a month. >> it is. >> take us through some of the highlights of what will happen. >> what we're trying to do here is we have to get more access to the railways. so basically we're looking at everything from earl li shutdowns at the 8:00 p.m. in this cases, eliminating the service until 3:00 a.m. on fridays and saturday nights, and
9:18 am
single tracking. and then we identified 15 areas that we basically have to get in and do significant work and what we're recommending that we shut it down one time, we work until it gets down and single track arrangement and then we reopen. and what that does, it allows us for do that work and allows us to do the other work in other parts of the system during the regular closures like the midnight rather than try to do it all in that midnight to 5:00 a.m. shift. the reality of what it takes to set up and take down, we're getting maybe in the five hour window, we're maybe getting two hours of hard work and you cannot possibly keep up with the challenges with the system that have been deferred and is aging. >> and we have questions from the viewer because this is can going to be disruptive. take a look at this tweet. someone says how can wmata justify
9:19 am
potentially doubling commuter times? you have no plans to reduce rush hour fares. is that something that can be changed? could you possibly throw riders a break? >> again, costs are still there for one thing. you know, i was thinking about this. it if you think of some of the major highway work that goes around, we don't get a tax break on the sales tax. you continue to need the revenue to do everything that we're trying to do. so i think by letting people know this is the level of service and letting them make plans, but i think it does make sense. and again, it's not impacting the whole system. maybe hits smaller sections. it gets very complicated to do that. so i think it's easier just to let people know. >> so no break on rush hour fares. there is your answer. i thought this question was really interesting.
9:20 am
with so much single racking in terms of fewer trains being out there, where metro be able to take advantage of that and catch up on rail car maintenance? because so many issues are not related to the tracks but the railcars themselves. you won't have a bunch of railcars on ultimate there. you can work on them? >> we will be doing that. but we will be staging railcars. so even though they hey not be in service right away, we want them staged. poins if there is a medical issue or a brake issue, we want to pull trains right this. so even they won't be operating, they will be there ready to go. >> i think a lot of riders would say okay, you'ring an ambitious general manager, you taking the step to fix the system. but that's what we've been sold before. for five years riders have been dealing with the pain and frustration of weekend service which is pretty much be abysmal in someas
9:21 am
going to independently take a look at the teams that are out there. how can we trust metro that you will actually fix the system? >> well, one thing is the amount of time that we're now going to have much more significant p. and it's a very clear plan. what you're seeing what we will do. and again, we will be monitoring it, obviously fta will. but it's not only that. what we have to install is the ongoing main thanks because that's again how we got here. if you keep deferring this this and deferring this, then this is what you end up with. so we have to get it back on where it needs to be and constantly maintain it at that level. which means again getting back into the t into the track. >> and i have to ask you one last question. in this period of six months, have you thought about walking away? >> well, it's been five months and eight day, but who
9:22 am
counting. it's one of the most exciting jobs and the most challenging jobs i've ever had and i'm enjoying it and the people i've been working with have been fantastic. >> have you thought about walking away? >> my wife has asked me that s question as well. >> and you won't answer and keep to yourself. thank you very much for sitting here and answering all of our questions. of course we will follow up on any metro breaking news that we have as we roll forward. and right now we'll toss to tom for a check of the weather. right now we gave some sunshine and we have some milky haze in the upper levels of our atmosphere. that is actually smoke from the alberta wildfires some 2,000 miles away. a little bit of a breeze here down at the surface. we have the winds up to around 15 miles per hour. temperatures are beginning to climb into the 60s. reagan national up to 64. mother's day
