In a tweet, Metro said service on the Red, Orange, Blue and Silver lines are dealing with the network issues, but did not specify what those issues were. Officials asked commuters to expect delays and plan for additional travel times. We have not learned how long the delays were expected to last Wednesday.

Over the weekend, an electrical issue caused major delays when stations were shut down along the Red line. Those delays extended into the Monday morning rush before all services were restored.
WMATA had previously announced that wait times on the Blue, Orange and Silver lines would be reduced starting August 1.
