Metro General Manager Paul Wiedefeld updated regional leaders on transit system projects Wednesday, but conspicuously did not mention Metro’s plan for how riders will get around when certain subway stations soon shut down for repairs.
Metro plans to close the Rhode Island Avenue-Brentwood and the Brookland-CUA stations from July 21 to Sept. 3 for repairs, with no Red Line trains running between the Fort Totten and NoMaGallaudet U stations for 45 days.
Ed Garnett, an Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner for Ward 5, said he’s “frustrated” by waiting for details on transportation alternatives.
