                        AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D
                        -------------------------------


        The information contained in this Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D 
Statement is filed by David I. Saperstein (the "Reporting Person"), pursuant to 
Rule 13d-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with the sale by the Reporting Person of 
394,089 shares of the Common Stock of Metro Networks, Inc. (the "Issuer").  This
Amendment No. 1 supplements and amends information contained in Item 5 of the 
Schedule 13D Statement (which was filed on October 28, 1996).  Except as 
otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 
have the meaning stated in the Schedule 13D Statement.


ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
        -------------------------------------

        Items 5(a), (b) and (c) are amended to read in their entirety as 
follows:

        (a) The Reporting Person beneficially owns an aggregate of 7,906,268 
shares of Common Stock, constituting 47.8% of the total class.

        The shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by the 
Reporting Person do not include an aggregate of 1,050,250 shares of Common Stock
held by the Trusts, the beneficiaries of which are the children of the Reporting
Person.  The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.  In
addition, the shares of Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by 
the Reporting Person do not include the Preferred Stock owned by the Reporting 
Person and pledged to the Issuer pursuant to the Issuer Loan agreement.  The 
Preferred Stock has not been included because it can only be converted into 
Common Stock upon repayment of the Issuer Stock Loan.  See Item 4 of the 
Schedule 13D Statement.

        (b) The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power as to 
7,906,268 shares of Common Stock.

        (c) On June 5, 1997, the Reporting Person exchanged 394,089 shares of 
Common Stock at a price of $25.375 per share for limited partnership interests 
in a privately held investment limited partnership in a privately negotiated 
transaction.  Other than as provided herein, no transactions in the Common Stock
have been effected by the Reporting Person since the filing of the Schedule 13D
Statement.
