Additional Service Will Be Added to Three Routes Through December

Beginning on Monday, December 15th and running through Friday, December 26th, Metro will offer additional bus service between the hours of 10am – 6pm to the following routes:

  • 1 – Westnedge
  • 9 – Gull Rd
  • 14 – West Main

“These routes serve major retail areas and therefore have some of our highest ridership rates,” said Executive Director Sean McBride. “People are going to work; people are going shopping. The holidays increase the need for transportation to these areas. Increasing service to match those needs keeps our community moving.”

“This service addition is designed to help our community during the busiest shopping season of the year. We recognize that traffic and weather cause delays to bus routes and we want to keep the community moving as safely and efficiently as possible,” added Metro Director of Operations Keshia Woodson-Sow. “This is also an opportunity for more people in our community to explore what Metro can do.”
