Metro is warning travelers there will be delays on the Fourth of July due to a reduced number of railcars available.
Metro has completed the final review of its plan to return eight 7000-series trains to passenger service and customers can expect service to start Thursday.
Starting Saturday, five Metro stations along the Orange Line will close for construction that is expected to take several months.
Paul Wiedefeld, the current CEO and general manager of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), is stepping down immediately.
Metro officials say service has been reduced temporarily after nearly half of their rail operators have lapsed recertification.
