Brighter skies are the perfect excuse to make plans for weekend revelry. But if you need Metro to get to and fro, maybe avoid the Silver and Blue lines? Both lines are running 24 minutes apart this weekend, and the Largo Town Center station will be closed to allow for grout pad renewal.
The other lines will be a little better—but not much. The Yellow Line will also be running 24 minutes apart, and (as usual on the weekends) only going up to Mount Vernon Square. The Orange Line is running 12 minutes apart on Saturday and 24 apart on Sunday, with single tracking at West Falls Church. The Red Line is running every eight to 16 minutes.
And our dependable friend the Green Line is running regular weekend service.
