The Weekend and Beyond

Here are a couple of things you might need to know for your travels this weekend and afterward.

Possible Delays on Metro

Starting Monday, Metro will conduct a series of rail tests to detect internal rail defects. The tests themselves will be conducted overnight, but if repairs are needed, speed restrictions may be put in place and could result in delays. The tests are scheduled to take place during the next three weeks, with different lines affected at different times. The first line in the queue is the Red Line.

Metro Expected to be Crowded for Monday's Nationals Game

A large ridership on Metro is expected on Monday evening, as the Nationals play their second game at the new stadium. The game starts at 7:10 p.m., and Metro reports that it will add trains and personnel to help with the anticipated larger volume of riders.
