“Beyoncé concert metro woes” Update: “Metro offering extended service for Beyoncé fans Sunday night”

Update from WMATA:

“Metro will “Hold Up” the final train departing from Morgan Boulevard Station on Sunday night to give the #BeyHive a “Flawless” ride to and from FedEx Field.

The last Silver Line train toward Ashburn on Sunday night will now depart Morgan Boulevard at 12:04 a.m. instead of 11:34 p.m.,

allowing concertgoers enough time to walk from the stadium to the station. Metro will make late trains available at transfer stations so customers aboard the final Silver Line train can rely on Metro to get them to their destinations on all lines. All customers in line at Morgan Boulevard at 12:04 a.m. will be accommodated.

For customers traveling toward Greenbelt, free shuttle bus service to stations closed for the ongoing fiber optic cable installation project will be available from Ft. Totten.

Last trains on Sunday from Morgan Boulevard:

Silver Line:
• Ashburn: 12:04 a.m.
• Downtown Largo: 12:29 a.m.

Blue Line:
• Downtown Largo: 12:33 a.m.
• Franconia-Springfield: Customers should take the 12:04 a.m. Silver Line train toward Ashburn and transfer to the Blue Line at Metro Center.

Customers should be advised that the walk between FedEx Field and Morgan Boulevard Station can take up to 30 minutes, depending on crowds and other factors.”

“Dear PoPville,

Got an email last night from FedEx field that the last train on Sunday night of Beyoncé concert is at 11:30 but she won’t be finishing until around 12. Ubers aren’t taking preschedules and there is now no public transportation. Why won’t DC extend hours like they do for fireworks, soccer games, etc? About to leave thousands of people stranded!!

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
