What Trackwork Are We Doing?

This weekend, Metro will perform maintenance and repairs on four of six lines. On the Red and Green lines, trains will single track through the work zones and shuttle buses replace trains on segments of the Blue and Silver lines. 

On the Blue and Silver lines, Metro will install radio and fiber-optic cables that enable cellular service and two-way communications for customers and the Metro Transit Police Department. On the Red Line, trains will single track between Van Ness and Friendship Heights for tunnel leak mitigation, sealing up any water leaks within the work zone. On the Green Line, between Naylor Road and Branch Avenue, crews will perform tie renewal, insulator replacement, and tamping. This involves pressure washing, coating application, waterproofing, and grout repairs.   

Shuttle Bus Information

Free shuttle buses are available between Addison Road, Morgan Blvd, and Downtown Largo.
