Metro: Maintenance Work To Affect 4 Of 6 Lines This Weekend

WASHINGTON (AP) — Metro says work on its rail system will affect four of its six lines this weekend.

Metro says that beginning Friday at 10 p.m. and continuing through Sunday, orange, silver and blue line trains will operate every 24 minutes. Metro has been doing work that will impact orange and silver line riders through Dec. 21, but the weekend delays will be longer than during the week.

On Saturday, riders boarding red line trains on the western side of the line, from Shady Grove to Dupont Circle, will wait up to 30 minutes for trains. Riders getting on trains anywhere from Farragut North to Glenmont will wait up to 15 minutes. Red line trains will operate at regular weekend intervals on Sunday.

Work won't impact the yellow and green lines.
