Metro will serve all 97 stations, with scheduled maintenance on the Red, Blue, Silver and Green lines. This work includes replacing grout pads which help stablize the tracks, renewing rail and joints, and installing fiber-optic cables for emergency radio and signal systems. At stations served by multiple lines in the central core of the system, trains will arrive on average every 4-5 minutes.
Major capital infrastructure improvements continue on the Yellow Line Tunnel and Bridge Rehabilitation Project over the Potomac River to replace the steel liner in the decades old tunnel and repair the bridge due to excessive wear, corrosion and water infiltration issues. Construction will continue through May 2023 with no Yellow Line service over the bridge. Instead, Yellow Line stations will be served by additional Blue Plus and Green Line trains.
