Metro will increase the frequency of Red Line service during peak hours to meet growing demand as more customers return to work and other activities. The Blue, Silver, Green, and Yellow lines will also see increased service during peak hours, while the Orange Line will continue to operate at regular intervals. Metro will continue to monitor ridership trends and make adjustments as needed.
Metro will launch its final planned service increase on Monday, offering the most train service in its history. The increase includes shorter wait times between trains on the Red, Blue, Silver, Green, and Yellow lines during peak travel times. This marks the 11th service increase since last summer as Metro rebounds from the pandemic. While bus ridership is approaching pre-pandemic levels, rail ridership remains about 45% lower than in 2019. Future service increases will be based on ridership demand, and Metro will monitor trends to assess the need for adjustments.
