What’s Up With the Green Line: Weekend of May 6 through May 8

The Green Line escapes disruptions for yet another weekend, but the Red, Orange and Blue lines will be single-tracking it in places, so if you’re transferring, you may experience delays.

On the Red Line, platform repairs continue at the White Flint Station. Expect delays, as trains will single-track in both directions on the Red Line between the Grosvenor-Strathmore and Twinbrook stations.

Red Line trains will once again share one track between the New York Ave-Florida Ave-Gallaudet U and Rhode Island Ave-Brentwood stations due to upgrades to the aerial structure. Pack a little patience if you’re headed out to Red Line work zones this weekend.

Orange Line trains will share one track between the Ballston-MU and West Falls Church-VT/UVA stations for construction activities related to the Dulles Metrorail extension and to Metro replacing cross ties.

On Saturday and Sunday, every other Orange Line train traveling to the Vienna-Fairfax/GMU Metrorail station will terminate at the Ballston-MU Metrorail station and return to the New Carrollton Metrorail station. Expect delays if you're transferring to stations in these zones.

Blue Line trains will share one track between the Franconia-Springfield and Van Dorn Street Metrorail stations to allow for resurfacing the ground beneath the rails.

On Saturday and Sunday, every other Blue Line train traveling to the Franconia-Springfield station will terminate at the Van Dorn Street station and return to the Largo Town Center station. Expect delays if you're headed for transfer points along these work zones.
