Hank Silverberg, WTOP Radio

WASHINGTON - Ever been at a Metro station and had to make an important call but your cell phone won't work? That will soon change.

By October, cell phone service from major carriers - AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint - will work in 20 stations with the highest volume of traffic.

Verizon has been operating in some of the stations already.

Those stations are:

Ballston-MU
Bethesda
Crystal City
Columbia Heights
Dupont Circle
Farragut West
Farragut North
Federal Triangle
Foggy Bottom-GWU
Friendship Heights
Gallery Pl-Chinatown
Judiciary Square
L'Enfant Plaza
McPherson Square
Metro Center
Pentagon
Pentagon City
Rossyln
Smithsonian
Union Station
Metro Board Member Chris Zimmerman says by next year, the service will be available in all stations.

By 2012, the service will be available everywhere in the underground Metro system.
