As the number of diagnosed coronavirus cases continues to grow daily in the D.C. area, WMATA says it will reduce service further over the weekend and urges people only to take essential trips.
On Saturday and Sunday, Metro will open between 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. on a "lifeline service" schedule.
Bus service will be limited to 26 routes. Customers should expect 30-minute wait times between trains. Metro has also instructed customers to board from the back doors only. Fares are waived.
Metro has already closed 19 stations to preserve cleaning supplies and accommodate limited staffing.
Commuters can expect these buses to run about every 30 minutes. The buses will generally run on a Sunday schedule, WMATA says.
