WMATA is warning customers to expect delays of varying lengths on the Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green Metro lines this weekend as employees perform a variety of maintenance work across the system.
Travelers on the Red Line moving between the New York Avenue and Rhode Island Avenue stops should anticipate delays around twenty minutes due to repairs on a section of elevated rail between the stations.
Work on replacing old track will force Blue Line trains between Pentagon City and Braddock Road stations to share a single track. WMATA is predicting 30 minute delays to this critical section of rail that services both the Pentagon City Mall and Crystal City. While not as frequently used by GW students, the Yellow Line will experience the same delays.
Maryland isn't spared, either: weed-trimming efforts alongside above-ground track between Greenbelt and College Park Green Line stations will create delays of 20 minutes.
Finally, events around the city have led to the rerouting of a handful of bus routes, the details of which can be seen at the WMATA website, www.wmata.com.
