Passengers traveling through the work zone should allow about 15 minutes of additional travel time, Metro advised on its website.

Metro's schedule of weekend track work continues this weekend at both ends of the Red Line.

Between 10 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 12, and closing on Sunday, Oct. 14, Red Line trains will single track through two work zones, according to Metro's website:

  • "Between Grosvenor and Twinbrook to allow for rail joint elimination for a smoother ride and platform repairs."
  • "Between NoMa-Gallaudet and Fort Totten to allow for track maintenance, structural repairs, insulator renewal and DDOT bridge work."

"Throughout the weekend, Red Line trains between Glenmont and Shady Grove will operate every 20 minutes," according to Metro's website.
