WASHINGTON - Major repair work to Metro's Yellow Line will shut down service to one of the transit system's busiest tracks for two weeks.
The repair project, Metro officials say, will completely close the Yellow Line from Monday, November 26 through Sunday, December 9.
Crews will focus on structural repairs and infrastructure improvements. Officials say riders should use the Blue Line for service between Virginia and D.C.
During the track project, Blue Line trains will run between Franconia-Springfield and Largo Town Center and between Huntington and Largo Town Center. During rush hour, Blue Line trains will run about half as frequently as usual.
