Rider Alert Detours

Mary Sit — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:19:00 GMT

The Downtown Transit Center will be closed to all pedestrians and buses this Saturday, April 20, from 1:30 a.m. until normal service resumes on Sunday, April 21, at 5 a.m.

St. Joseph Parkway, between Main Street and Travis Street, will also be closed to all traffic. Buses on St. Joseph Parkway will be detoured to local streets.

These detours are happening due to construction activity at 1900 Main St., METRO's administration building.

We'll have temporary bus stops where you can catch your buses. Click here to identify your route and the intersection where you may catch your bus.

Airport Direct shuttle to get to the airport. It's fast, convenient and frequent.

Next month, we're making some changes that we hope will serve more customers and make it even more convenient.

We're adjusting the downtown route to serve multiple hotels on Dallas Street, including the George R. Brown Convention Center. We'll continue to operate the service every 30 minutes, seven days a week.

And we're dropping the fare from $15 to $4.50 one-way.

We'll have more details coming later.

Changes are scheduled to go into effect on Sunday, Jan. 23.
