Service Change: Monday, December 2, 2024

Metro Transit will make schedule and routing changes to 25 MetroBus routes in Missouri and Illinois on Monday, December 2, to improve transit service for customers as part of a quarterly service change. This includes:

  • Expanding coverage to serve new areas on some routes
  • Increasing service frequency on several routes
  • Introducing new streamlined routes with less transfers
  • Schedule and routing adjustments to improve on-time performance and transit connections

These improvements are possible due to the success of Metro’s recruitment efforts over the last year, which have strengthened workforce numbers and added dozens of new operators to the MetroBus team.

There are no changes to MetroLink service on December 2.

Details on the changes, including new schedules and maps, are available below. If you have questions or need any assistance, please contact Transit Information at 314.231.2345 (phone) or 314.207.9786 (text), available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.

*Transit Information hours will be extended December 2 through December 6 to better assist our customers who may have questions as the December 2 service change goes into effect. Customers can contact the Transit Information team by phone or text Monday-Friday (Dec. 2-6) from 5 a.m. until 7 p.m.
