MetroLink Work Scheduled March 8-12
MetroLink passengers may need to allow extra time for their evening commutes next week as construction work along the light rail system may cause minor delays.

During these periods, Blue Line MetroLink trains will only operate between the Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 and Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Stations.

- Eastbound Blue Line passengers will need to board a Red Line train at the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station to continue their eastbound trips.
