(DC)- Even before Metro gets to work on its SafeTrack plan, federal transit officials say urgent repairs need attention first. The Federal Transit Administration says the track trouble spots include the Red Line between Medical Center and Van Ness; the Blue, Orange and Silver lines near Potomac Avenue; and the Orange and Silver lines between Ballston and East Falls Church. In a letter to the Metro General Manager, the FTA says those three areas are at significant risk of smoke and fire events.
