Metro Schedule For Feb. 9 - 10: Buses Replace Trains, More

WASHINGTON, DC — There are plenty of things to do and see in the D.C. area this weekend — including Cupid's Bar Crawl DC, Zombie Apupcalypse Party, and DC Chinese New Year Parade.

If you're thinking of taking the Metro on Saturday, Feb. 9 or Sunday, Feb. 10, you should plan accordingly. Service changes might cause some delays. Here's everything you need to know before heading out for the weekend:

Red Line trains will operate every 8 minutes between Shady Grove and Dupont Circle, and every 10 minutes between Judiciary Square and Glenmont. Buses will replace trains between Dupont Circle and Union Station. Farragut North, Metro Center (upper level), and Gallery Place (upper level) stations will be closed.

WMATA has provided the following travel tips:

• The shuttle stop for Gallery Place & Dupont Circle stations will be relocated Sunday from system open to approximately 6PM for an event.
• Due to shuttle bus locations, all customers traveling to stations other than Judiciary Square should ride shuttle buses to/from Union Station.
• Only customers traveling to Judiciary Square station should remain on the train beyond Union Station.
