Blue and Yellow line construction will require significant detours this fall for transit users.
The Yellow Line tunnel and bridge rehabilitation work is a separate project that will shut down the Yellow Line tunnel near the L’Enfant Plaza station and the bridge across the Potomac River until about May 2023. Both structures — built before Metrorail opened — are nearing their life expectancy, and Metro’s chief engineer has identified the steel-lined tunnel as the agency’s top repair priority.
Metro said passengers traveling between the Pentagon and L’Enfant Plaza stations should plan on about 15 minutes of extra travel time. Green Line trains, meanwhile, will operate every eight minutes, then every 10 minutes after 9:30 p.m.Metro will offer seven free shuttles during this phase to replace rail service, including local and express shuttles that have fewer stops in Virginia and three shuttles that will cross the Potomac River.
Express shuttles will be available between 4:30 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekdays and 6:30 a.m. and 9 p.m. on weekends. They include a Blue Line express shuttle that will run between the Franconia-Springfield and Pentagon stations every six minutes, and a Yellow Line express shuttle between the Huntington and Pentagon stations that also will run every six minutes.
