Metro SubwayLink

One line, 14 stations and 15.4 miles, running under downtown from Owings Mills out to Johns Hopkins Hospital. It is the fastest way across the city centre when it is going your way, and useless when it is not, which is the honest summary of a single-line metro. Same $2.00 fare and same CharmPass as the bus and the light rail, and a train every eight minutes at peak.

Verified

Verified Sep 18, 2026 against MTA's fares page for the $2.00 one way and the $4.60 day pass; published line facts for the 14 stations, the 15.4 mile length, the Owings Mills to Johns Hopkins Hospital route, the hours and the 8 to 15 minute headways, all attributed to MTA; accessibility from https://www.mta.maryland.gov/accessibility. Facts can drift; if something here is wrong, tell us and we’ll fix it. How we check.

Not yet confirmed

MTA's own Metro SubwayLink page currently returns a page under construction, so the hours and headways here come from a source citing MTA rather than from MTA directly. Worth re-checking once that page is back.
