CEO Mayer: The 2015 Metrorail engineering report called for adjustments to the restraining rail flangeway widths; however, Metrorail did not make these changes.

In 78 percent of the reported crashes, cyclists had a tire become caught in the flangeway gap, the space in the metal track for streetcar wheels.
