Morgan Boulevard station

Description

Morgan Boulevard is an island platformed Washington Metro station in Summerfield, Maryland, United States. The station was opened on December 18, 2004, and is operated by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Providing service for the Blue and Silver Lines, the station is located on Garrett Morgan Boulevard, one mile from FedExField, the home of the Washington Redskins. The stadium is about a 19-20 minute walk to the stadium from the station. In December 2012, Morgan Boulevard was one of five stations added to the route of the Silver Line, which was originally supposed to end at the Stadium-Armory station, but was extended into Prince George's County, Maryland to the Largo Town Center station (the eastern terminus of the Blue Line) due to safety concerns about a pocket track just past Stadium-Armory. Silver Line service at Morgan Boulevard began on July 26, 2014. This is one of the few stations not served by Metrobus. The Prince George's County bus system, called simply TheBus, serves this station. The platform at this station is wider than others and the station features double the number of faregates of similar stations because of the large volumes of passengers using it before and after football games. For commuters, there is a day care facility at the station.
