Orange Line trains will operate as follows:
On Saturday: Trains will operate at regular intervals (every 12 minutes) between Vienna & Stadium-Armory. However, due to a work zone at Minnesota Ave & Deanwood stations, every other Orange Line train will operate between Vienna & Stadium-Armory only. As a result, passengers traveling to or from the following five stations may experience a longer wait for a train: Minnesota Ave, Deanwood, Cheverly, Landover, New Carrollton.
On Sunday: Trains will run every 20 minutes. (Normal Sunday service is every 15 minutes.)
Work Performed: The multi-month effort to rebuild the deteriorating platforms at Minnesota Ave and Deanwood stations will continue. In addition, crews will perform track maintenance, including fastener replacement and third-rail insulator renewal.
Blue Line Regular service (no scheduled work)
Yellow Line Regular service between Huntington & Mt Vernon Sq
Yellow Line trains will operate to/from Mt Vernon Sq, rather than Fort Totten. If you are traveling to or from a station north of Mt Vernon Sq, use a Green Line train to complete your trip.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
