Red line trains will run every 20 minutes. Additional red line trains will operate between Grosvenor and NoMa-Gallaudet from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday and from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday, making the wait 10 minutes at those times.

Green line riders can expect regular weekend service except on Saturday at the Greenbelt Station only, where trains will arrive and depart every 24 minutes from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
