Still, the Blue line is essentially a supplementary line. It makes that silly loop before heading to the downtown area. From Franconia/Springfield it is easier to transfer to the Yellow Line to reach L'Enfant Plaza and Metro Center (via the Red line). The Orange line is heavily congested along the I66. Although the Yellow line is shorter than the Blue, it is more crowded due to the fact that it has a more direct route. Potential crowding on the Blue line would be cancelled out by the new Silver line and improvements to the Yellow and Orange lines. |
