Service Starts in 2023!

A brand new transit network plan has been approved and will go into effect in June of 2023.

This service redesign will increase frequency of trips, reduce issues with transfers and overall make Metro's system more direct and easier to use.

It will also schedule routes around Metro’s 2024 bus rapid transit system.
