Greenbelt posted an advisory on February 19, 2026 urging residents to stay informed about upcoming Metrorail track work and announcing that WMATA will host an online Metro Message informational session on Wednesday, February 25 at 12:30 p.m. The advisory appears on the city website under News Flash and is credited to City Administration with the headline Important Metro Updates: Upcoming Track Work & February 25 Info Session.

The advisory reminds the public that WMATA is hosting the online session and explains its purpose in the city’s words: "This session is designed to connect community leaders and residents with the latest Metro updates, including details about scheduled construction and service changes." The Greenbelt post directs readers to register, stating plainly: "View the agenda and register here."

Greenbelt’s notice also highlights a named construction effort with local consequences: the post includes the subheading "Crystal City Entrance Construction: Spring 2026 Weekend Closures" and states that "Beginning this spring, the Crystal City Entrance Construction Project will affect weekend Metrorail service along the Blue and Yellow lines." The advisory does not list specific station-level closures or exact weekend dates; instead, it points readers to WMATA for more granular information and for shuttle routing, noting, "For project details and a map of shuttle service, visit WMATA’s Crystal City Entrance Construction page."

The city’s advisory repeats its central call to action in plain terms: "The City of Greenbelt encourages residents to stay up to date on upcoming Metrorail service adjustments and track work." That language frames the post as a heads-up for Greenbelt-area riders rather than a detailed service bulletin, and the page UI contains the site prompts readers use for alerts, including "Create a Website Account - Manage notification subscriptions, save form progress and more."

Practical next steps offered by the advisory are limited to registration and WMATA’s project page; the Greenbelt post does not include a registration link or the Metro Message agenda text within the advisory itself. The City Administration posting on February 19, 2026 serves as the city’s primary notice; WMATA remains the host for the Feb. 25 online briefing and the source for shuttle maps tied to the Crystal City work.

Will you register for the Feb. 25 Metro Message at 12:30 p.m. to learn how the spring weekend Blue and Yellow line closures might change your commute? View the agenda and register here. For project details and a map of shuttle service, visit WMATA’s Crystal City Entrance Construction page.
