WASHINGTON – After a nearly month-long break, Metro rail work returns to weekend track work on Friday Jan. 2.

WMATA says trains will single track from Eastern Market to Stadium Armory. From 10 p.m.

Friday until close of service on Sunday. Riders should plan on longer waits on the Orange, Blue and Silver lines. Trains will run every 24 minutes on those lines.

The rail work is a return to the transit system’s $5.5 billion capital investment project to update its aging infrastructure.

There will be no work on the Red, Green or Yellow lines this weekend.

While convertibles are the stars of summer, SUVs are the workhorses. Their tasks are endless, from trips to the beach to Home Depot or to socially-distanced gatherings. It’s hard to shake up the jam-packed SUV market, but Hyundai managed to do so with the Palisade, as an extreme value play. It seats up to eight, can be equipped with almost every luxury touch and competes with SUVs costing thousands (or tens of thousands) more.
