If you're taking the Metro this weekend, get ready for some delays on the Red Line.

On the Red Line, trains will run as follows Saturday and Sunday:
- Every 10 minutes between Shady Grove and Noma-Gallaudet stations
- Every 10 minutes between Glenmont and Fort Trotten stations
You can ride free shuttle buses bewteen NoMa-Gallaudet and Fort Trotten -- the buses will make intermediate stops at Rhode Island Avenue and Brookland.
