This weekend, Metro should be running close to schedule during daytime hours, but don’t count on it for nighttime plans.
On the Orange, Silver, and Blue lines, expect regular service during the day, but from 10 p.m. to close, multiple stations will be single tracking and trains will be running every 26 minutes.
Same deal on the Yellow Line: regular service until 10 p.m. this weekend, then trains will run every 26 minutes until close.
On Saturday, the Red Line will be running 18 minutes between Shady Grove and Glenmont. On Sunday, Red Line trains will operate with regular service until 10 p.m., when they’ll run every 18 minutes.
The Green Line will run with regular service the entire weekend.
