Weekend Metro Shutdown to Impact Two Lines

Metro users should plan ahead for a major shutdown at the Orange and Silver Line in Arlington.

The service will not run from Rosslyn to East Falls Church on Saturday (Jan. 11) and Sunday (Jan. 12). There will also be no Silver Line service between Largo Town Center and Rosslyn this weekend.

Trains are scheduled to run every 12 to 15 minutes between East Falls Church and Vienna and between East Falls Church and Wiehle-Reston East.

Free shuttle buses will replace trains between East Falls Church and Rosslyn on the Orange Line. The Ballston, Virginia Square, Clarendon and Court House stations will be closed.

Metro riders traveling through the work zone will be charged for a single, continuous trip.

More information on weekend service changes is available online.
