Metrobus Service

Traditionally, three bus lines have run through Fort Lincoln.  Two of them (the B8 and B9) terminated at the Rhode Island metrorail station on the Red Line.  And one of them (the H6) currently operates and terminates at the Brookland metrorail station on the Red Line.  It remains unclear whether B8 and B9 bus service will be restored.  When it operated, the B8 ran only during the morning and evening rush hours, and was by far, the quickest way to reach downtown.  The B9 bus ran during non-rush hours, and added a run to the Colmar Manor shopping center to what was the route of the B8 bus during the midday.
