Metro is performing maintenance work and station improvements which may affect your commute on MetroLink. Check our list of current projects below to follow along as we create the next generation of Metro and understand where you might experience delays on the system.
MetroLink has resumed service to the University City-Big Bend MetroLink Station. The station’s eastbound entrance and elevator (located on the north side of Big Bend Blvd.) reopened ahead of schedule on January 6, and the station’s westbound entrance (located on the south side of Big Bend Blvd.) reopened on January 12.
Single-Tracking Schedule: Monday, January 19, through Friday, January 23, from 6 p.m. to end of service
Metro is conducting necessary maintenance work on tunnels used by MetroLink near Union Station. To facilitate construction, Metro has scheduled single-track operations during which Blue Line trains can only operate between Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 and Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station.
During these scheduled single-track operations, riders should expect to transfer between Blue and Red Line trains as needed at the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station. Red Line passengers may experiences delays of 5 minutes. Riders should allow extra time when transferring.
Metro expects work on the Union Station Tunnel to continue until Winter 2028 but does not expect single-tracking operations will be needed for the entire project. Metro will share an update once it has scheduled an end to single-tracking operations. Learn more about how Single-Track Operations work and why they are a necessary tool for Metro.
