Weekend work on the Metro will affect travel for Red, Orange and Blue line riders.
On the Red Line, three stations will be closed: Takoma, Brookland and Rhode Island Avenue. The Fort Totten station will be providing Green and Yellow line service only.
Red Line trains will operate in two segments: between Shady Grove and NoMa-Gallaudet, and between Glenmont and Silver Spring. Trains will run every 10 minutes between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. and at regular weekend intervals (every 15-20 minutes) between 9 p.m. and 9 a.m.
Buses will replace trains between NoMa-Gallaudet and Silver Spring.
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, the last train from Glenmont to Silver Spring will leave 47 minutes earlier than usual: at 1:50 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday morning (in other words, Friday and Saturday nights), and at 10:50 p.m. on Sunday.
On the Orange and Blue lines, trains will run every 16 minutes (as opposed to normal 12-minute intervals) throughout the weekend.
The changes will be in effect from 10 p.m. Friday to closing time Sunday.
There is no scheduled work on the Green or Yellow lines.
